Sticky Notes

A coloured note card for short annotations and brainstorm items.

A sticky note is a small coloured card for a short piece of text: an idea, a question, a label, a brainstorm item. It is the digital version of the paper sticky, and it behaves like any other canvas element once placed.

A scatter of coloured sticky notes, the way a brainstorm wall looks on the canvas.

Adding one

Open the floating palette and switch to the Tools tab.
Click Add sticky note, then type your text.

Working with them

Stickies move, resize, group, and recolour like everything else, and their colour follows the active theme. Scatter a wall of them for a brainstorm, then drag related ones together, or pull them into a frame or group to organise the result.

Sticky notes pair naturally with dot voting in a live session, capture ideas on stickies, then vote on them together.
