Keep your canvas tidy, readable and easy to reuse. Everything Figr creates sits on the canvas as a node: screens, flows, docs, wireframes and the files you add. Group related work, connect nodes to show how they relate, and let Figr group the canvas for you when it gets busy.
1

Move nodes into place

Drag any node to where you want it. Put related work next to each other, like a PRD beside the screens it describes.
2

Connect related nodes

Draw a connector from one node to another to show how they relate, such as a flow leading to its screens. Figr reads these connections as context on its next turn.

Group related nodes into sections

Put related nodes in a section, like “Onboarding v2” or “Research”, so they stay together and move as one.

Organize the canvas automatically

When the canvas gets busy, open the Layers panel and use Organize canvas. Figr groups your nodes into sections by creation date or by type. Sections you made yourself stay as they are.

Lay the canvas out left to right in the order the work happened: context, then flow, then screens, then docs. New teammates can read it like a timeline.
