Sketch with pens, shapes and text; save PNG or project JSON.

Processed only in this browser

Sketch with shapes and text, select objects to move them, then save a PNG or a project file.

Drawing settings
Canvas and project settings

Use Pan view to drag an enlarged view or scroll it with arrow keys; select Pan view first on touch screens too. With a drawing tool, arrows move 1px or 10px with Shift, Enter starts/finishes, Delete removes selection, and Ctrl/⌘+Z undoes. Erase removes the whole object.

Objects · select with a keyboard

Drawings and text are handled only in this tab, without saving them to a server, URL or persistent browser storage. Only PNG or JSON files you explicitly save remain on your device.

How to use this tool

  1. Choose a pen, line, rectangle, ellipse or text tool, then set its color and width.
  2. Draw on the canvas or add an object at the center, then arrange it with Select / move.
  3. Save the result as PNG, or save project JSON separately to continue editing later.

Input and settings
Load example: Idea and Action shapes with a connecting line
Result
A 1200×800 board; move objects or edit labels, then export a PNG at that size

The editor grid, selection outline and keyboard cursor are excluded from the PNG.

Draw and select objects

A pen stroke, shape or text block is treated as one object. Select / move chooses the topmost object under the pointer and lets you drag it. Erase removes a complete selected stroke or shape rather than rubbing out individual pixels.

Add text by writing in the text field and placing it on the canvas. Selecting existing text loads its contents into that field; apply the selected-object settings to commit an edit. A focused canvas also accepts arrows and Enter for drawing and moving selected objects.

Saving and board limits

PNG flattens the current board onto its background color. Project JSON retains object types, coordinates, colors and text for later selection and editing. Importing replaces the current board but Undo can restore its previous state; there is no autosave or collaborative editing service.

Canvas sides range from 200–3000px with a nine-million-pixel maximum. Limits are 500 objects, 50,000 total pen points, 2,000 points per stroke, 500 characters per text object, and 4MB per project file. The latest twenty changes can be undone; shrinking a canvas warns when objects would extend outside it.

Common questions

Will the board remain after I close the page?

The board is not automatically retained: closing or reloading clears the tab’s work. Save project JSON yourself for future edits and download a PNG when you need a finished picture to share.

Will the page scroll while drawing by touch?

The drawing surface prevents touch strokes from turning into page scrolling. Scroll the page outside the canvas, or use view zoom and the board’s scroll container to inspect a large drawing.
