Spreadu Docs
The Editor

Editor Overview

The spread editor is where your photos become an album. Here's how it all fits together.

These docs are still being written. Join the waitlist and we'll let you know when everything's ready.

Where the Magic Happens

The Spreadu editor is a visual canvas for designing every spread in your album. Drop photos in, watch the layout engine arrange them, then fine-tune anything you want. Or don't. The first draft is usually pretty good.

Editor Layout

The interface has four main areas:

  • Top Bar. Zoom controls, undo/redo, and view options. Everything you reach for constantly.
  • Canvas. The main editing surface showing your current spread. This is where you drag, resize, and position photos.
  • Photos Panel. Your uploaded photos live here. Drag them onto the canvas to place them.
  • Spread Strip. Thumbnail navigation at the bottom. Click any spread to jump to it, or use arrow keys.

The Workflow

  1. Pick a spread from the strip
  2. Drag photos from the panel onto the canvas
  3. The layout engine arranges them automatically
  4. Adjust positions, zoom levels, and sizing
  5. Move to the next spread and repeat

That's it. No complicated setup, no mode switching, no "please wait while we process." Just drag, drop, design.
