How to Move it?
You can move a canvas to a new location in the workspace via the Web or Wall client.
To move a canvas:
- Select the canvas you wish to move by clicking on it once.
- Hover your mouse over the top or bottom edge of the canvas.
- When your cursor turns into a hand icon, click and hold down your mouse button.
- Drag the canvas to its new location and release the mouse button.
You can also use the keyboard shortcuts “Ctrl + arrow keys” (Windows) or “Command + arrow keys” (Mac) to nudge a selected object one pixel at a time in any direction. Simply select the object(s) you wish to move, hold down either the “Ctrl” or “Command” key, and then press the appropriate arrow key on your keyboard. For example, pressing “Ctrl + Right Arrow” will move the selected object(s) one pixel to the right.
Creating a Canvas:
- Select the workspace where you would like to create your new canvas.
- Click on the “+” icon in the top-left corner of the workspace.
- A pop-up menu will appear. Click on “Canvas” to create a new blank canvas.
- Give your new canvas a name and click “Create.”
- Your new canvas will appear in the workspace! You can now drag and drop objects onto it from other canvases or from your device’s file explorer.
Resizing a Canvas:
- Select the canvas you wish to resize by clicking on it once.
- Hover your mouse over one of the corners of the selected object until your cursor turns into a double-sided arrow icon.
- Click and hold down your mouse button.
- Drag the corner of the object to its new location and release the mouse button. The canvas will resize itself accordingly.
You can also use the keyboard shortcuts “Ctrl + Shift + arrow keys” (Windows) or “Command + Shift + arrow keys” (Mac) to resize a selected object one pixel at a time in any direction. Simply select the object you wish to resize, hold down both the “Ctrl” or “Command” key and the “Shift” key, and then press the appropriate arrow key on your keyboard. For example, pressing “Ctrl + Shift + Right Arrow” will make the selected object wider by one pixel.
Deleting a Canvas:
- Select the canvas you wish to delete by clicking on it once.
- Click on the “Trash” icon in the top-right corner of the workspace.
- A pop-up menu will appear. Click on “Delete” to confirm.
- The selected canvas will be deleted from the workspace!
