- panel-metadata.md — Project Metadata fields (title, category,
IMDb/UPC/TVDB/MBID/custom-tag/language)
+ how they feed publish + designer-mode
equivalent
- panel-layers.md — Layers panel — per-mode surface scoping
(Cover/Disc/Jewel/Custom Art/Slide/Deck/
Pixel/Book), per-row controls, reorder +
group + multi-select, layer-options
field list
- panel-export.md — Export options panel — show/print toggles
for guides/bleed/safe/crops/fold, mode-
specific hides
- panel-print-save.md — Save / Open project JSON + Print/Save-as-
PDF print-dialog tips + Export JPEG/PNG +
mode-specific gotchas
- panel-credits.md — Credits panel — Linked Designs contributor
surfacing, tip button, publish-time tag
emission, private-publish behaviour
- panel-tool-options.md — Right-side floating Tool Options pane —
how it switches between tool options and
layer options, cross-links to per-tool docs
Registered as a new "Sidebar panels" group ordered after Vector

# Tool Options pane (right side)
|
|
|
|
The floating panel next to the canvas. Its contents switch based on
|
|
the active tool + the currently-selected layer. Empty until you
|
|
pick a tool or a layer.
|
|
|
|
## Two modes of content
|
|
|
|
The pane swaps between two kinds of content depending on what's
|
|
active:
|
|
|
|
1. **Tool options** — when no layer is selected, shows the active
|
|
tool's drawing parameters (fill / stroke / size / kind etc).
|
|
These apply to the *next* layer you draw.
|
|
2. **Layer options** — when a layer IS selected, shows that
|
|
layer's properties (x / y / w / h / rotation / opacity / fit /
|
|
clip / fill / type-specific fields). Edits apply live.
|
|
|
|
You can have both modes briefly at once if you draw a new layer
|
|
while a different layer is selected — the new layer's options
|
|
take over the moment it lands.
|
|
|
|
## Per-tool contents
|
|
|
|
The per-tool docs cover the specific controls each tool surfaces:
|
|
|
|
- [Pen tool](#/help/tool-pen) — Fill toggle + colour, Stroke
|
|
colour + width, mid-draw Finish / Cancel, path actions block
|
|
(Pointed corner / Curved smooth / Delete anchor / Average /
|
|
Join endpoints / Close path / Reverse direction).
|
|
- [Pencil tool](#/help/tool-pencil) — Stroke colour + width.
|
|
- [Shape tool](#/help/tool-shape) — Kind picker (rect / rounded
|
|
rect / circle / ellipse / triangle / polygon / star / line),
|
|
Fill toggle + colour, Stroke colour + width.
|
|
- [Text tool](#/help/tool-text) — Font / Colour / Point size /
|
|
Alignment + Bold / Italic toggles.
|
|
- [Direct Selection](#/help/tool-direct-select) — Hint + the
|
|
Path Actions block when anchors are selected.
|
|
- [Eyedropper](#/help/tool-eyedropper) — no panel; uses the
|
|
active swatch.
|
|
- [Select](#/help/tool-select) / [Hand](#/help/tool-hand) — no
|
|
panel of their own; they show the *selected layer's* options.
|
|
|
|
## Per-layer contents
|
|
|
|
When a layer is selected, the pane shows that layer's edit
|
|
controls. See the [Layers panel](#/help/panel-layers) page for the
|
|
full layer-options field list — the floating pane is the live
|
|
edit surface for those fields.
|
|
|
|
## Tips
|
|
|
|
- The pane is intentionally floating + slim so it stays out of the
|
|
way on small viewports. On wider viewports it docks against the
|
|
right side of the canvas.
|
|
- If you can't find a field you expect to see, check: (a) is the
|
|
right tool active? (b) is a layer of the right type selected?
|
|
- Hiding the layers panel (sidebar collapse) does not hide the
|
|
Tool Options pane.
