Frequently asked questions
What is zen canvas mode?
A quieter, less cluttered view so the composition takes center stage.
Do I lose tools in zen mode?
Chrome is reduced, but you can still edit and switch back when you need full panels.
Is zen mode the same as whiteboard mode?
No. Whiteboard is a freeform canvas; zen mode is about a calmer editing view.
When should I use it?
When you are judging crop, color, or layout and the extra UI is in the way.
