for example i have 1 object connected to many other objects, i want to find another object that was linked to the first one, how can i quickly move to another one simply, without navigating with my mouse?

Hi ​@turbo mmm thank you for posting in the Community and thank you ​@aparrish for chiming in!

Lucid currently supports moving between objects on the canvas using the Tab and Shift+Tab shortcuts. These let you cycle through the selectable shapes in the diagram, as detailed in this Community post on keyboard shortcuts in Lucid.

However, these don’t specifically follow the arrows or connections between shapes.
