Minimap and Navigation

Use the minimap to find your place in a large canvas.

What the minimap is

The minimap shows a small view of the whole canvas.

Use it when the project has many nodes and you cannot see the full workflow at once.

When to use it

Use the minimap when:

  • you zoomed into one node and need to return to the full workflow
  • you have separate branches for image tests, video tests, and final clips
  • you dragged nodes far away from the main path
  • you want to check whether the canvas is still organized

Keep branches easy to find

Put each branch in a clear area.

For example:

  • main workflow in the center
  • rejected tests below the main path
  • saved assets near the right side
  • final Video Composer node at the end
