In this guide

Key sections from this documentation page.

Editor ToolbarAdd ElementsElement Properties

Choose Create Flyer from the Flyers workbench, then select a template or Blank Template.

Editor Toolbar

The top toolbar lets you:

  • Rename the flyer.
  • Switch its status between Draft and Active.
  • Undo and redo changes.
  • Zoom from 25% to 100% or reset the zoom.
  • Turn snapping on or off.
  • Preview or print.
  • Save changes.
  • Delete the flyer.

The editor marks unsaved changes. Choose Save before leaving; changes are not saved automatically.

Add Elements

Use the right sidebar to set the canvas background and add:

  • Text
  • Image
  • Button
  • Divider
  • QR code
  • Contact block
  • Pet grid
  • Rectangle, circle, or rounded shape

New elements appear on the canvas. Drag them into position, resize them, and select them to open their property controls.

Element Properties

Properties depend on the selected element. Available controls include content, font, text alignment, colors, borders, opacity, dimensions, rotation, layer order, and canvas alignment.

Specialized elements add their own options:

  • Image uploads an image and controls its display.
  • Button sets button text and a safe external link.
  • QR code encodes a URL or other value.
  • Contact stores formatted contact text.
  • Pet grid selects pets, filters the chooser by species, status, or photo availability, and controls the number of columns.

Use the layer controls when elements overlap. With snapping enabled, the editor helps align an element to the canvas and nearby elements.

Keyboard Controls

With an element selected:

  • Delete or Backspace removes it.
  • Control or Command + D duplicates it.
  • Arrow keys nudge it.
  • Shift + Arrow moves it farther.

Preview and Save

Preview renders the flyer as it will print or export, including linked buttons, QR codes, and current pet-grid information. Return to the editor to correct anything, then choose Save.

Set the status to Active only when the flyer is ready for any enabled public-profile display.
