Basics

Boards

A board is where you create all your designs. It is a living document where you develop multiple versions of the same design and collaborate with others to arrive at the winning design

Each board contains an infinite canvas where you add nodes that can contain sketches, images and 3D models. Each node can create other nodes through various actions such as rendering, inpainting, enriching etc

Boards are automatically saved everytime you add, delete or move nodes

Controls

Adding nodes

There's three ways to add nodes:

  • Right-click anywhere on the canvas
  • Click on the + button in the top left corner
  • Dragging an edge from an existing node: only the compatible next nodes will show up in the dropdown

Connecting nodes

You can connect nodes by dragging an edge from one node to the other

Only compatible nodes can be connected, for example a node that outputs an image can only connect to a node that accepts image input

While connecting, look for the node handle colours. Handles with same colours are compatible and can connect

You can also click the buttons on the image node to create a connected node

Zooming & Panning

Use the scroll wheel on a mouse, or the pinch gesture on a trackpad to zoom in and out on a board.

Click and drag to pan

Selecting, moving and deleting nodes:

You can select, move or delete individual nodes by clicking on them and pressing the delete key

To select multiple nodes at once, hold down the Shift key and drag over an area to select nodes

Basic Workflow

Watch this simple workflow where we create a packaging design:

Step 1. Create a rough sketch of a basic plastic bag using the Text To Image node

Step 2. Use the Enrich Node to turn the sketch into a design based on a prompt

Step 3. Keep clicking the Go button until we get what we like, additionally you could also experiment with the prompt

Step 4. Use the Inpaint Node to add a hypothetical brand name to our packet

This was a basic example 🐣. In practice its not uncommon to have boards chaining 100s of nodes together.

Read on to know how you can use other nodes such as Composer, Image To 3D, and mix styles from existing images. With SuperCraft, you can keep chaining and branching nodes infinitely to create any design you want.
