Build faster with quick create in FigJam
Quick create is a set of shortcuts that help speed up your process when brainstorming or diagraming.
Use quick create to:
- Add stickies and shapes to your board with fewer clicks and trips to the toolbar
- Create a sticky or shape with the text field active, add some text, quick create the next shape, and repeat
- Automatically add connectors between new shapes as they're being created
You can't use quick create with locked stickies or shapes.
Quick create stickies
Keyboard shortcut
- Add a sticky to your board.
- Press ⌘ CommandReturn / ControlEnter.
A new sticky is created to the right, with its text field active.
From an existing sticky
When you hover over the blue dot at the edge of a selected sticky on the board, a quick create icon appears that lets you create a new sticky in that direction. You can create a new sticky to the top, right, bottom, and left of an existing sticky on the board.
- Add a sticky to your board.
- Hover your cursor over a side of the sticky to activate the quick create icon.
- Click to create the next sticky in that direction, or drag the preview to any location on your board.
A new sticky is created, with its text field active.
A connector is added between the original and new sticky when you click and drag the quick create icon. No connector is added when you use the keyboard shortcut.
Quick create shapes
Keyboard shortcut
- Add a shape to your board.
- Press ⌘ CommandReturn / ControlEnter.
A new shape is created to the right with a connector and its text field active.
From an existing shape
When you hover over the blue dot at the edge of a selected shape, a quick create icon is displayed that lets you select and create a new shape and connector in that direction. You can create a new shape to the top, right, bottom, and left of an existing shape. Clicking repeatedly on the same side creates more shapes below and above the last shape added.
