Classic pages ​

A page is a fixed-size design: a single canvas with a width and a height, its own background, and its own set of objects. Cards, posters, flyers, CVs, and social posts are all pages. A page is the simplest of the project's part types, next to infinite scenes, slide decks, video, and boards.

Quick overview ​

  1. Click + in the page tabs, or press Ctrl+Shift+N, to add a page.
  2. Pick a product type or a custom size. See Artboard sizes.
  3. Design on the canvas using the usual tools: shapes, text, images, and the rest.
  4. Click a tab to switch pages, and hover one for a live preview before you commit.
  5. Right-click a tab for rename, duplicate, tag, group, and delete actions.

Detailed reference ​

What's independent per page ​

Every page keeps its own content, background, size, and label, so nothing you do on one page reaches into another. That independence is what makes a project able to hold a business card, a CV, and a set of social posts side by side without their layouts or colors interfering with each other.

Creating a page ​

Clicking + adds a blank classic page right away. Hovering the button instead opens a menu for every part type (Single, Infinite, Slide, Video, Board), so a project can mix part types from the same control. A plain new page opens at a default size that you can change at any time from the right panel. See Page tabs and groups for the full tab-management picture, and Artboard sizes for sizing.

Switching, reordering, and renaming ​

ActionHow
Switch pageClick its tab
Fast switchAlt+S / Alt+A (group-aware, jumps to the next or previous page even across a collapsed group)
Jump to page 1 to 9Alt+Shift+1 through Alt+Shift+9 (group-aware)
ReorderDrag a tab to a new position
RenameDouble-click the tab label, type, then Enter

Switching pages saves the outgoing page's canvas automatically before loading the next one, so you never need to save by hand first.

Duplicating and deleting ​

Duplicate a page from its right-click menu, or with Ctrl+Shift+D, to deep-copy every object, its background, and its size onto a new tab placed right after the original. A project must always keep at least one page, so the last remaining page can't be deleted, and deleting a page removes it and its content for good.

Front and back pages ​

A business card can hold a Front and a Back: two independent pages that share the same size but keep separate objects and backgrounds, switched between exactly like any pair of tabs. See Artboard sizes for how to turn this on and how export handles both sides.

Per-page extras ​

Beyond its objects, a page carries a few extras that travel with it wherever it goes in the project:

ExtraWhat it does
BackgroundA solid color, a gradient, or an image behind everything on the page. See Backgrounds, patterns, and gradients.
Grid layoutsDrop in a ready-made grid to place photos or content quickly.
Design noteA private text note attached to the page, visible only while you're editing it.
TagsTag a page so you can find it later, or tag the whole project at once. See Workspace.

Many pages, many part types ​

A project holds many pages side by side, and mixes them freely with scenes, slide decks, videos, and boards, since all of them are just different part types in the same project. Manage the full set from the page tabs and groups.

Step by step ​

Add a page, then duplicate one as a starting point ​

  1. Click + at the left of the page tabs (or press Ctrl+Shift+N) to add a page. Its tab opens and becomes active.
  2. Set its size from the right panel if you need something other than the default. See Artboard sizes.
  3. To branch from work you already have, right-click the tab you want to reuse and choose Duplicate (or press Ctrl+Shift+D on the active page). A deep copy of every object, the background, and the size lands on a new tab right after the original, labeled with " (copy)".
  4. Double-click the copy's tab, type a clearer name, and press Enter so you can tell the two apart.

Reorder pages by dragging a tab ​

  1. Press and hold on a tab in the strip.
  2. Drag it left or right. The target tab shows a highlighted edge marking where the drop will land.
  3. Release to drop it in the new position. Whichever page you were viewing stays active, wherever it ends up. To move several at once, Ctrl/Cmd-click or Shift-click to select them first, then drag any selected tab and the whole selection travels together.

Give a business card a labeled Back side ​

  1. On the card's Front page, press Ctrl+Shift+N. A page added this way inherits the current page's size, so the back matches the front exactly.
  2. Double-click the new tab, type Back, and press Enter.
  3. Click either tab to switch sides, and design each one independently. Export handles both sides for you, as two image files or as a single two-page PDF. See Artboard sizes.

Delete a page you no longer need ​

  1. Right-click the page's tab and choose Delete.
  2. Confirm in the dialog. The page and everything on it are removed for good.
  3. If it was the page you were viewing, the editor moves you to the nearest remaining page automatically. A project must always keep at least one part, so Delete is unavailable when only one tab is left.

Common tasks ​

  • Rename a page: double-click its tab, type, and press Enter, or right-click the tab and choose Rename.
  • Jump to a page by number: Alt+Shift+1 through Alt+Shift+9.
  • Step through pages one at a time: Ctrl+PageDown / Ctrl+PageUp, or the group-aware Alt+S / Alt+A.
  • Check what is on a page before opening it: hover its tab for an on-demand thumbnail preview.
  • Attach a private note to a page: type into the page design note. It travels with the page and is visible only while you edit that page.
  • Tag a page so you can find it later: right-click the tab and choose the tag action. See Workspace.

Keyboard shortcuts ​

ShortcutAction
Ctrl+Shift+NAdd a new page
Ctrl+Shift+DDuplicate the current page
Ctrl+PageDown / Ctrl+PageUpNext / previous page
Alt+S / Alt+AFast next / previous page (group-aware)
Alt+Shift+1 to Alt+Shift+9Jump directly to page 1 to 9 (group-aware)

Tips ​

Duplicate to branch a variant

Duplicating a page is the fastest way to try a different layout or color without losing the original. Rename the copy so you remember which is which.

Use fast switch on large projects

Alt+S and Alt+A step through pages faster than reaching for the tab strip, and they respect collapsed groups instead of paging through every hidden tab.

Hover before you commit

The tab preview renders on demand, so it's a cheap way to check what's on a page before switching to it, especially in a project with a lot of similarly named pages.

Troubleshooting ​

The last page can't be deleted

A project always keeps at least one part, so Delete does nothing when a single tab remains. To empty a page instead of removing it, delete its objects or reset its background rather than the page itself.

  • Deleting a page is permanent and undo does not bring it back. Undo history is per page and resets every time you switch pages, so it can never reach a page you already removed. If you deleted something you needed, look for an earlier snapshot of the whole project in Version history.
  • A new page is a different size than you expected. The + button and its Single menu entry always start a blank classic page at a fixed default size, while Ctrl+Shift+N adds a page at the current page's size. Set the size you want afterward from the right panel. See Artboard sizes.
  • You did not lose work by clicking away. Switching pages writes the outgoing page's canvas automatically before the next page loads, so there is nothing to save by hand first.
  • Undo restored the wrong thing after a switch. Undo only reaches back to the moment you opened the current page, because history is reset per page visit. It never crosses into another page's edits.
