If you’re new to the platform, these tips will help you improve your workflow and create high-quality designs faster. Understanding how the design editor works is key to making the most of its tools and features.
Creating Your First Design
You can create designs from your personal workspace by clicking the Create New button in the top-left corner of your dashboard. Select Single Design, choose your desired size, and you’ll enter the Design Editor.
You can start a design in two ways:
From scratch – Build your design element by element.
From a template – Choose a professionally designed template and customize it to fit your needs.
Working with Templates
If you choose a template, selecting any element on the canvas will display a toolbar. This toolbar lets you:
Adjust size, position, and colors.
Add click actions to elements.
Apply animations.
Grouping and Resizing Elements
Select multiple elements at once by holding click + drag.
Use the Group Layers function to move or edit multiple items together.
Resize elements individually using the anchor points on each selected asset.
Replacing Template Assets with Your Own
You can easily personalize templates by swapping out placeholder images:
Upload your own media to the platform.
Drag and drop your uploaded image onto the element you want to replace.
The new image will automatically update in the design.
Pro Tip
Using templates speeds up the design process while still allowing full customization. Replace assets, tweak layouts, and apply brand colors to make every design uniquely yours.
