Frames
Frames are containers in which you can organize objects, such as shapes, text, images, audio, and more, inside a Space. When objects are placed inside a frame, you can move, copy, or delete them together while still being able to edit each item inside the Frame individually.
Why use frames?
Frames help you:
- Organize related content visually
- Move or manage multiple objects at once
- Keep your board clean and easy to navigate
- Maintain flexibility to edit individual elements
How to add a frame
- Click the Frames icon from the toolbar on the left.
- Select a frame style from the available options.
After adding a frame, you can resize or reposition it like any other object in the Space.
You can also add a frame by selecting the elements you want to group, right-clicking, and choosing Frame this selection.
Frame types
Vani provides a variety of frame sizes and formats to suit different needs:
- Standard paper sizes like A4, A5, A6 and A7
- Landscape and portrait orientations
- Device-based sizes for screens like mobile, tablet, desktop, TV, and watch
