Section
Sections on Morphic are containers that keep your Canvas organized as your work grows. Group any assets into a named Section, arrange the contents, and move everything together as a single unit.
Creating a Section
- Click and drag to select the assets you want to group, then right-click and choose 'Create section' to wrap them in a new Section
- Click '+' in the toolbar and choose 'Section', or right-click the Canvas and choose 'New' > 'Section', to create an empty one in the middle of your view
- Select assets and press Shift + S to wrap them in a Section
Naming your Section
- Double-click the Section label to rename it inline
- Click the Section and open the '...' menu in the top left, then choose 'Rename'
Adding and removing assets
- Drag any asset into the Section to add it
- Drag assets out of the Section to remove them
- Every asset type works: Artboards, images, videos, and audio
- Sections can nest inside other Sections
Arranging the contents
- Open the '...' menu or right-click and choose 'Arrange' → Grid, Horizontal, or Vertical to lay the contents out in that format
- Choose 'Resize to fit' from the same menu to snap the Section's boundary tight around what's inside, or turn on 'Auto-resize' to keep it that way
- Resize the Section by dragging any corner or edge
Moving and deleting
- Drag the Section to move everything inside as a group
- 'Delete section' deletes the Section and everything inside it. To remove only the Section and keep its contents, choose 'Unwrap section'
- The same menu has 'Lock section' and 'Download'
Ways to organize your Canvas with Sections
Sections can shape your Canvas around almost any kind of workflow. A few common patterns:
| Pattern | How to apply it |
|---|---|
| Group by project or campaign | A Section per client, brand, or campaign so each body of work stays self-contained |
| Group by asset type | One Section for images, another for videos, another for audio, so you can find what you need fast |
| Group by work stage | Separate Sections for Drafts, In Progress, and Final so it's clear what's done and what's still in motion |
| Group by platform or use case | A Section each for YouTube thumbnails, Instagram ads, website banners, and so on |
| Nest Sections | Place smaller Sections inside a larger one to keep a big project with many moving parts contained in one place |
| Keep a references Section | Stage inspirations, mood boards, or uploads separately from your main work |
| Present work cleanly | Use 'Arrange' → Grid, Horizontal, or Vertical to snap a Section into a tidy layout when reviewing with teammates or clients |
These are a few ways to think about it, but there's no limit to how Sections can be used. Shape them around whatever fits your creative process.
That's how you use the Section feature on Morphic. You now have a clean way to structure the Canvas around any project, theme, or workflow.
