Keyboard navigate canvas elements in Build mode
Use the arrow keys to change what's selected in Build mode

In Build mode, you can now use the arrow keys to change what's selected on the canvas — the same elements you can already click. Using the same keys as Design mode: ↑ Up, ↓ Down, ← Left, and → Right to move through parent, child, and siblings, and Option/Alt + ↑ Up or ↓ Down to step through elements one by one.
If you're working through a page — checking content, updating text, reviewing components — you can move through them in sequence without clicking each one individually.
Arrow keys only stop on elements you can select. A rich text element is one stop and components inside it stay reachable. Hidden elements are skipped.
