Navigate the canvas, Grid, and Focus
Move around large designs without changing the screens’ actual dimensions.
Last updated 23 September 2026
Choose Design at the top to work on your screens. The bottom bar offers Canvas, Grid, and Focus. New designs start in Canvas, and Studio remembers the chosen view for each design.
Choose a view
Canvas shows artboards together. Select a screen, drag its title to reposition it, or double-click to edit in place.
Grid shows a compact collection of screen previews. Double-click a preview to open Focus.
Focus shows the selected screen on its own. Switching between Canvas and Focus keeps the current editor and its undo history.
Pan and zoom
Scroll with two fingers to pan the canvas.
Pinch, or hold Ctrl/Cmd while scrolling, to zoom.
Hold Space and drag on the canvas, or drag with the middle mouse button, to pan.
Use the bottom zoom controls, Fit all, or Fit selected to frame your work.
Select a screen in the left sidebar to bring it into view. All screens in the screen header returns to Canvas and fits the artboards.
Zoom does not resize the design
A narrow Choro window or open sidebar makes the artboard appear smaller through zoom. It does not make a desktop design use a mobile layout. Resize the artboard to change its saved dimensions, or use Desktop/Mobile in Prototype for a temporary responsive check.
Only the active artboard is a live editor. Other screens use preview images that sharpen as you pause. Your local artboard positions and camera are kept separately from the screen content; Arrange explicitly resets the arrangement.
