Studio
Canvas
Canvas is Studio's open board: an infinite surface where you can pin docs and notes, add images, text, shapes and color cards, and draw connections between them. Use it for anything that doesn't have a final shape yet.
Panning and zooming
Click and drag anywhere on the empty canvas to pan around. Scroll to zoom in or out. It zooms toward wherever your cursor is, so you can zoom into a specific cluster of items without losing your place. Zoom ranges from 25% to 250%.
Use the zoom controls in the corner to zoom in, zoom out, or reset back to 100% and centered.
Adding items
Use the toolbar to add something to your canvas: link a doc, link a note, add text, upload an image, add a shape, or add a color card. Drag any item to move it around.
Shapes come in four forms: rectangle, rounded rectangle, circle and diamond. Drag the corner to resize one, choose a fill or no fill, and type inside it to label it.
Click the color on a color card to change it. Pick a preset, use the color picker, or type a hex code. The Copy button copies the hex value so you can paste it anywhere.
Connecting items
To connect two items, drag from the connector handle on the corner of one item and drop it onto another. Connectors stay attached when you move either item.
Organizing your canvases
On the Canvas page in Studio, group your canvases into color-coded categories, nested as deep as you like. Use a canvas's ⋮ menu to rename it, delete it, or move it into a category.
Tip: Reach for Canvas when you're mapping something that keeps growing and you don't know its final shape yet: a research map, a plot, a moodboard.
