Canvas Basics

Learn how to move around the ViraFlow canvas, keep work organized, and find the main controls.

What the canvas is for

The canvas is the workspace for one creative project.

It keeps ideas, prompts, scripts, images, videos, references, results, and saved material in one place. Use it to see how a result was made, then continue from the step that matters.

What to learn first

Start with these controls:

  • move and zoom the canvas
  • arrange nodes into a readable workflow
  • use the top bar to rename, check credits, and open billing
  • use the left toolbar to add nodes, open Assets, open Presets, and open Recent Results
  • use the minimap when a project grows
  • save the project before leaving

Keep the canvas readable

A useful canvas is not just a pile of results.

Place nodes in the order of work:

  1. idea or script
  2. image references
  3. generated images
  4. generated videos
  5. final composition or saved assets
