Part of the Inkbreaker tools
Canvas
A real whiteboard for plotting a story, mapping who knows what, and pinning the parts that matter.
Start freeCanvas is an infinite whiteboard built into Inkbreaker. Sketch a plot, arrange index cards, draw arrows between characters, drop in images, and push it all around until the shape of the story shows up. It is the place for the thinking that does not fit in a straight line of prose.
Open a canvas on its own, or tie it to a world or a piece so it shares that work and the people on it. A shared canvas updates live for everyone looking, on the same realtime engine that powers co-editing. Draw, write, and connect with a full set of whiteboard tools, and your board saves as you go.
What it does
- ✓An infinite whiteboard with shapes, arrows, freehand drawing, text, and images.
- ✓Live multiplayer: tie a canvas to a world or piece and collaborators see every change as it happens.
- ✓Index cards you can rearrange to find the order of a story before you write it.
- ✓Solo boards save on their own; shared boards inherit the people you already work with.
