Most elements show what one person drew. These are the ones that collect what everybody thinks, and keep it on the canvas afterwards.
This page is the map. Each element has its own short article, so you can link somebody straight to the one they need.
Finding them
They live in the palette's Collaborate category, under Dynamic in the category dropdown. The category opens on a grid of six groups you click into; these elements sit in two of them: Ask for the ones that put a question to everybody, and Record for the ones you leave behind on the canvas, the comment and action panels among them. A Search collaboration box above the groups searches every group at once.
The other groups hold the elements that do something when pressed (timers, reactions, Selection Mode buttons, portals): you reach for both kinds while running a session, so they share one category. Ask also holds the dot vote and poll buttons.
- Ask: estimate cards, the quiz, the temperature check, the idea box and the Q&A board.
- Record: comment panels, action panels, the agenda, the decision record and the roll call.
The Collaborate category is part of the Diagram mode palette. In Plan mode the palette's Tools category carries the temperature check, the estimate card and the idea box. In any mode you can add any of them by name from the editor's Search panel.
Who can use them
Anyone with an edit link can answer. Someone on a view-only link sees every card and its answers, but the controls that would change them stay inactive. The Q&A board is the one exception: view-only visitors can add notes and vote on it.
The presses that run a round (Reveal, New round, opening an idea box, taking the roll, starting an agenda segment, starting or revealing a quiz) belong to the facilitator while somebody holds that role. When nobody does, any editor can press them. Answering is always everybody's.
Answers aren't undoable: your Ctrl+Z should never retract somebody else's answer. Setting a card up (its label, an estimate's scale, an agenda's segments, a decision's status) is an ordinary edit, and undoes like one.
