Elements

The Element Board provides a broad, organized view of all the elements in your manuscript. It’s designed to make management simple by gathering everything into one place. You can access it from the bottom view:

You can switch between a simplified view, which gives you a clean overview, and a detailed view, which lets you dive deeper into each element.

At the top, you can search and filter as well.

And you can add new elements, groups, and generate an AI element by clicking on the ''+ Add'' icon at the top right:

By clicking on the three dots on the right upper side, you can modify your elements:

Tags & Types

In this section, you'll be able to manage, create, and organize the types of elements and the tags assigned to them.

Let's start with the types.

An element can take on many different types, giving you the flexibility to shape your story however you need. You’re free to create a wide variety of elements—whether they represent characters, settings, themes, or anything else—and assign them the type that best fits your manuscript. You can create a type by pressing on the ''+ Add'' button at the top:

Tags are labels you can assign to an element, helping you keep track of each one in an organized way. They act like identifiers, making it easier to group and locate related elements across your manuscript. For instance, you might create a “Main Character” tag and assign it to all the characters who play central roles in your story. You can create a tag by pressing on the ''+ Add'' button at the top:

If you wish to edit or delete either a tag or a type, you can simply tap on the three dots on the right.

Element Board

The Element Board gives you a broader perspective on all the elements in your manuscript. Within this board, you can manage existing elements, create new ones, and build relationships to connect them together. It also allows you to add text directly, making it easy to expand or refine your ideas as you go. It works similarly to the Freeform Grid from the Planning Board.

To begin, let's focus on the bar at the top. You can add elements, grouping nodes, and notes just by pressing on any of the icons:

Let's talk a bit about the Grouping Nodes.

These are used to divide your elements into sections, keeping them organized and separated so they’re easier to manage. By grouping elements into distinct sections, you create a clearer structure within your workspace, ensuring that related items stay together while different categories remain distinct. You can create a grouping node by pressing on the icon on the bar at the top:

You can also connect the elements and establish relationships between them:
