HelpUser Interface

User Interface

Get your bearings in the editor: the panels, toolbar, context menus, the Map, zoom and tab bars, quick controls, and power user mode.

Panel Layout

Where the toolbar and panels sit around the canvas, and how to rearrange them.

The Toolbar

The contextual toolbar that appears when you select one or more elements.

Context Menus

Right-click menus across the editor, each scoped to what you clicked.

Zoom Controls

Zoom in and out, fit the canvas to the screen, and reset to 100%.

Map

The bottom-left Map: a zoomed-out overview with a box for your view. Tap or drag to navigate.

The Tab Bar

Switch between the boards in a document, add new ones, and group them into folders.

Quick Controls

The always-available Search, Settings and appearance controls at the end of the bottom bar.

Settings

Every preference toggle, what it does, and which device it follows you to.

Power User Mode

Recommended settings in one switch, and Minimal chrome for a quieter interface.

The Title Bar

Rename the document, see who can see it, preview as a viewer, and Share or Copy.
