Drag board selections into other apps.

External drag-out turns a board selection into a Windows file drop. It is a fast way to move references into creative tools without exporting a duplicate first.

External drag-out turns a board selection into a Windows file drop. It is a fast way to move references into creative tools without exporting a duplicate first.

  • Drag selected items off the canvas edge to begin a file drop.
  • Drop into Photoshop, Illustrator, Figma, the desktop, Explorer, or other apps that accept file drops.
  • Use drag-out for quick creative handoff while keeping the board intact.
  • Source files remain the files being handed off unless an export workflow creates copies.
