Create a New Type

How to create new types from All Objects and your editor

The All Objects is the central place to manage, search for, and create new types.

Creating Types from All Objects

Open the All Objects widget, and navigate to the Types tab. Afterwards, simply click on New button to create a new Type.

From here, you can choose a name, and add templates and relations to the newly created Type.

If you've decided that this Type is no longer relevant, you can use the context menu (mouse right-click) to delete the Type from your space. Please proceed with caution; any objects of this type will show an alert if the Type has been removed from your library.

Creating Types from the Object Editor

In case you think of a new object type just as you're creating an object, you can create a new type on-the-fly. In this case, use the type selection menu in the same way as the search bar in the Types library. The type will be automatically added to your Types library, while you can proceed with editing the object of your new type.

If you decide later on that you want to convert your object to a new object type after it's created, again - you can do so by selecting the object type, choosing 'Change type', and entering the name of the type which you would like to create.

Any type you create from the object editor will be available for editing in the types library using the steps above.
