Document Tabs
A Diagrammix document can hold several pages, shown as tabs above the canvas. Each tab is its own canvas with its own diagram, layers, artboards, and background — all saved together in one file.
Adding a Page
Click + at the end of the tab bar and choose the kind of page:
| Page kind | Shortcut | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Freeform Page | Cmd+T | A general-purpose canvas |
| UML Class Diagram | Option+Cmd+T | PRO |
| UML Sequence Diagram | Shift+Option+Cmd+T | PRO |
| ASCII Diagram | — | Text-based diagrams, PRO |
File → New Tab (Cmd+T) also adds a freeform page.
Switching Pages
Click a tab to switch to it. The active tab is highlighted.
Renaming a Page
- Double-click the tab's title, or
- Right-click the tab and choose Rename
Type the new name and press Return (or click elsewhere) to save it. Press Esc to cancel. An empty name keeps the previous one.
Closing a Page
Click the × on a tab to close that page. The page and its content are removed from the document without a confirmation, and closing a page can't be undone — if you close one by mistake, use File → Revert to Saved to go back to the saved version. A document always keeps at least one page, so the last tab has no close button.
Tips
- Name pages by content — "Overview", "Sequence: Login", "Data Model"
- One topic per page keeps each canvas readable and exports focused
- Duplicate the whole document with File → Duplicate when you want a variant of every page
