The Unsorted Folder

Where diagrams live until you file them: the Explorer's catch-all for anything not in a folder.

Unsorted is the Explorer's catch-all. Any diagram that isn't filed in a folder lives here, so nothing is ever lost just because you haven't organised it yet.

What lands in Unsorted

  • New diagrams you create without opening a folder first.
  • Diagrams freed from a deleted folder — when you delete a folder, the diagrams that were directly inside it return to Unsorted rather than being deleted.

In short, a diagram is in Unsorted whenever it has no folder of its own.

It's a view, not a real folder

Unsorted is a synthetic group the Explorer shows for convenience, not a folder you created. So it behaves a little differently from your own folders:

  • You can't rename or delete it, and you can't nest folders inside it.
  • It only appears when there's something in it, so an organised library doesn't show an empty Unsorted row.
  • It has its own section so you can always find unfiled work: open Unsorted from the sidebar or visit /explorer/unsorted.

Tidying up

To clear Unsorted, move its diagrams into folders. Open a diagram row's menu, choose Move to folder…, and pick a destination. As soon as a diagram has a folder, it leaves Unsorted.

Treat Unsorted like an inbox: let new diagrams collect there while you work, then file them into folders in a quick pass when you have a moment.
