How can we help you?

Objects

Shapes toolbar options
Objects icon

The objects icon displays shapes, lines, arrows, and containers, all in one easy-to-access location.

Quickly build your board by:

  • Select a single shape such as a callout to bring attention to a matter.
  • Easily build an intricate arrangement of objects by utilizing containers to organize your objects.
  • Use lines and arrows to create relationships between objects or to point out items.
  • Use object linking to create flow diagrams, mind or concept maps.
Note: Sticky Notes and Text are also considered objects but have their own icon on the left toolbar to access them more quickly.
