GuidesWorking on the board

Select nodes and use quick actions

Select nodes on the board to use them as references for the agent, or pick from quick actions.

Before you start

  • An open board with at least one node.

Steps

  1. Click a node to select it, or drag to select multiple.
  2. Selected nodes become references — the agent can read them and do whatever you ask with them.
  3. You can either:
    • Ask the agent directly — type your instruction in the agent input. For example: "Describe what's in this image" or "Edit this to have a blue background." This is the most common workflow.
    • Use a quick action — when you select nodes, quick actions appear showing tools that match your selection. Click one to get started quickly.

Tips

  • Different selections surface different tools. Two images → Combine Images. A frame with layers → Animate. One video + one image → Apply Motion.
  • See the Tools reference for what each tool needs.

Board mode and focus mode

Switch between the board-level canvas view and focused editing for a single node.

Use frames and layers

Understand how frames and layers work together, and how to create multi-layer compositions.
