Canvas Cards & Connections

Create drag-and-drop cards and draw visual connections between them.

Adding cards

Click the card tool in the toolbar or double-click any empty space on the canvas. A new card appears with a title field ready to type.

Cards have a title, description, color, and optional tags. Drag a card to reposition it. Drag the edges to resize.

Connecting cards

Click the connection tool, then click a source card and a target card. An arrow appears linking them.

Connection styles: straight, curved, or elbow (right-angle). Change the style by clicking the connection and using the style picker in the toolbar.

Add labels to connections by double-clicking the connection line and typing.

Card colors and grouping

Assign colors to cards for visual grouping — right-click a card and choose a color from the palette.

Group cards by dragging a selection box around them and clicking 'Group' in the toolbar. Groups can be collapsed to save space and expanded to see details.

Editing and deleting

Double-click a card to edit its title and description. Right-click for a context menu with options: duplicate, delete, change color, add connection.

Delete connections by clicking them and pressing Delete or Backspace.
