How to use the Pan tool
Move around large canvases comfortably while keeping your creative work in view. PictorX keeps the tool in the same browser workspace as your layers, photos, text, and design elements, so you can refine a composition without switching applications.

Use Pan as one step in a complete editing workflow. Adjust the composition, add text or graphics, and keep every change editable while you turn an image into a finished design.
Frequently asked questions
When should I pan instead of move?
Pan changes what you see on a large canvas. Move relocates a layer.
Does panning change the export?
No. It is only a view tool; the full canvas still exports.
Can I pan around a whiteboard?
Yes. That is the usual way to travel across a large freeform board.
Is pan useful when I am zoomed in?
Yes. Zoom for detail, then pan to the next corner without deselecting the layer.
