Adding items

A board is built from three kinds of items: assets, text, and notes.

Adding assets

  • Use the board's add / picker to browse your library and drop assets onto the canvas.
  • On an empty board, the ADD ASSETS button gets you started.
  • Assets keep their aspect ratio when you resize them — no squashing or stretching.

Adding text and notes

  • Add text for headings and labels.
  • Text comes in sizes (e.g. a large heading style) so you can build a visual hierarchy on the board.

Arranging

  • Move an item by dragging it; resize from its corner handle.
  • Multi-select with a marquee (drag a box) or by adding items to the selection, then move them together.
  • Control which items sit on top — see Free-draw & layers.
Start from a template

If you'd rather not arrange from scratch, apply a board template to scaffold a labeled grid, then drop your assets into place.
