Image

The Image tool adds a picture to the canvas. The added image is an item too; it can be moved and resized.

  1. Choose the Image tool from the toolbar.
  2. Select an image file; you can also:
    • Drag and drop an image onto the canvas,
    • Paste from the clipboard (Ctrl+V).
  3. Resize the image from its corners and move it by dragging.

When you add an image and select it, a selection bar appears above it. For images, the controls are minimal:

  • Opacity: adjust the image’s opacity with the slider.
  • Layer order: bring the image to front or send it to back.
  • Duplicate / Delete.

Images have no color, fill, or stroke controls; you set their size and position directly on the canvas with the corner handles and by dragging.

Your images, like your other drawings, stay on your device (in browser storage); by default they are not sent to a server. Cloud saving and collaboration are optional.

  • If you want to generate a diagram from an image, see the Image to Diagram tool.
