Zoom in or out, pinch with two fingers, press + / - on your keyboard or on the buttons on the bottom right of your canvas.
‍
To move around, slide one finger.
‍
To focus on the whole canvas, press the button on the bottom right of the canvas or press ! To focus on an object, select it and then press @

To move objects, select them and drag them. Note: it's easier to move websites from the title.

We call each infinite canvas a "universe", and we advise to use one per project.
‍
To create a new universe, open the side panel (⌘1) and click on "New Universe" or just press ⌘N.

To edit a universe, click on its name at the top of the canvas. You can change its name, description, background colour, and publish it (more on that later).
‍
To link universes (inception), drag them from the side panel.

To import items, you can either press the + sign on the top right, drag them into the canvas from a folder, or use a shortcut:

Create text: press T
Create Web sticker: W
Create post it (sticky): S
Open photo picker: P
Open file picker: F

Use pin mode to focus on one item while navigating the canvas. To pin an item, select it and press the pin button on the right of the canvas, then edit the size if needed.

You can search anything, keep multiple websites open side by side, and extract text and images.

‍

You can browse your PDF files right from the canvas, extract text and images, or even a page or two!

To extract text, just highlight it. For an image, click on the selection button at the top left, select what you want to extract and click extract.

To select multiple pages, open the thumbnail panel, press ⇧ to select two or more pages, then drag them out.

Use your Apple Pencil to draw on the canvas, annotate objects and create a visual structure for your ideas.

To connect two items, select one and drag from one of the purple lines on its side until you touch the second item.

If you drag a connector to the empty canvas, a new text object will be created.

Click on the connector to edit its type, size or colour. Drag from the centre to curve it.

When you live copy an item, Kosmik creates another item that is exactly identical. If you edit one of them, both will change, even if they are located on different universes.

To live copy, select an item and press ⌘L, or use the ⌘ menu on the right of the canvas.

If you just want to duplicate an item so that the new one isn't linked, press ⌘D.

Every Kosmik canvas can be published. When you publish your universe we create a read-only version of it where people can look at your work and re-use.

To publish, click on the universe menu and then on Publish. Once it's publish, a new icon will appear on top, which you can use to copy the public link, or unpublish the universe.
