Components represent reusable entities in your project and can be used for all sorts of object types, even abstract things (e.g. weather, a feeling). Each component has a title, may hold one or more attributes and optionally a cover image.
Components can be used to store data for:
To create a new component or component folder:
Create component
or Create folder
.To edit a component click on the component item in the sidebar.
A component can hold an unlimited number of Attributes. An attribute can be one of the following two types:
{success} Components can be attached to a component list attribute by dragging and dropping them from the sidebar. Components can also be dragged and dropped between lists.
To add an attribute to a component click on the Plus icon
button at the top right corner of an attribute and select the attribute type you would like to create. The newly created attribute will appear above the clicked one.
To resize an attribute click on the double arrow
icon at the top right part of the attribute. Attributes can be either half width or full width (default).
To delete an attribute bring your mouse cursor on top of the attribute and click on the appearing trashcan icon
.
Attributes can be reordered by dragging them from the dots icon
at their top left corner.
To attach an image asset to a component:
change cover
at the top right corner.Alternatively you can drag and drop an asset from the sidebar asset list to the component cover area.
{success} An asset will also be created and attached to a component as cover when dropping an image file from your drive or browser at the top area of the component (while in component edit mode).
Components can be attached on elements. This can be useful if you want e.g. to reference a certain character, item, or location during a story or dialogue point. To attach a component on an element drag and drop it from the sidebar over the element. To remove it drag and drop it on an empty workspace area. Removing a component from an element simply removes the reference and does not delete the component.
To delete a component or component folder right click on the component row in the sidebar and select Delete
from the menu.
{info} When deleting a component all mentions and references of this component will be removed as well.
{warning} Deleting a component folder will ALSO delete all components inside that folder and its subfolders
