The canvas is your primary work surface. It’s an infinite 2D plane — blocks live on it, connections thread between them, and everything you build is visible at a glance.

​
Adding blocks

At the bottom of the canvas is the Block toolbar. Click any icon to drop that block at the center of your view. Alternatively:
  • Drag an icon from the toolbar directly onto the canvas to place it exactly.
  • Right-click anywhere on the canvas to open the block picker at that position.
  • Duplicate a selected block with Cmd+D (macOS) / Ctrl+D (Windows/Linux).

​
Selecting and moving

  • Click a block to select it. Its Inspector panel opens on the right.
  • Drag to reposition. Blocks snap to a light grid.
  • Multi-select with Shift+Click or by drawing a box (drag on empty space).
  • Move a selection with the arrow keys — hold Shift for larger steps.

​
Panning and zooming

  • Pan with two-finger drag on trackpad, or click-drag on empty space.
  • Zoom with Cmd+scroll (or trackpad pinch). Zoom range is 25% – 200%.
  • Fit to view with F — centers all blocks and picks the right zoom level.
  • Reset zoom with 0.

​
Minimap

The minimap (bottom-right) is a bird’s-eye view. Click anywhere in the minimap to jump the viewport there. Useful when your Flow has grown past a single screen.

​
Presence

If teammates are editing the same Flow, you’ll see their avatar hovering near the block they’re inspecting. Their cursor shows in real time.

​
Organizing large Flows

  • Groups — box-select blocks and press G to group them. Groups collapse into a labeled tile so complex sub-flows stay tidy.
  • Notes — press N to drop a floating text note anywhere on the canvas. Great for TODOs or explanations for teammates.
  • Color labels — right-click a block for a color tag. Useful for marking blocks by owner, domain, or status.
