Navigate and present scenes in your Freeform boards on Mac

You can save scenes—views of your board—to organize your board into sections, then navigate and present those different parts of your board to others. Scenes let you identify and label content so you can show your board, section by section, rearranging the order as needed. You can also use scenes to identify the parts of your board you want to print or export as a PDF.

A Freeform board with the Scene Navigator open.

Save scenes

  1. Go to the Freeform app on your Mac.

  2. Open a board with content.

  3. Zoom and scroll until you frame the part of your board you want on the screen for your first scene.

  4. Click the Scene Navigator button in the lower-left corner of your board, click the Scene Navigator button, then click Add Scene.

  5. Repeat these steps until you capture all the scenes you want—frame your next scene, tap the Scene Navigator button, then click Add Scene.

    Tip: Don’t worry about saving scenes in order. You can edit their sequence after you capture them.
