Storyboard

Visual Space manual, Live Apps, Storyboard

Storyboard helps you plan what happens next. Arrange a film scene, product journey, animation idea, or presentation as a sequence of boards, with images, action, dialogue, and timing close together. A storyboard is saved in your space and can be reopened from the app's file browser. Its linked article holds the longer brief, while comments give reviewers a shared place to discuss the work.

Scenes And Boards

Visual Space manual, Live Apps, Scenes And Boards

Scenes organize a story into meaningful sections. Boards turn each section into specific moments: a camera shot, screen state, action, or change that the audience needs to understand. The distinction is useful even for a short project. A scene can describe the setting or phase, while its boards explain how that part unfolds.

Saving And Review

Visual Space manual, Live Apps, Saving And Review

A storyboard is a saved document with a canvas, linked article, and shared discussion. Use the canvas for the scene plan, the article for its brief or script, and comments for decisions that need a conversation.

Build A Storyboard

Visual Space manual, Live Apps, Build A Storyboard

Build a short sequence that another person can follow without you explaining every board. This guide uses a simple arrival scene, but the same approach works for a product flow or an instructional video. You need to be signed in and able to create in the chosen space area. To edit an existing storyboard, you must be its author or the space owner.

Stage

Visual Space manual, Live Apps, Stage

Stage helps you think through a place in three dimensions. Build a rough courtyard, interior, landscape or imagined world, then add the people, notes and references that explain how it should feel and work. You can start with simple shapes. Detailed models are useful later, when a particular object matters to the idea.

Scene Objects

Visual Space manual, Live Apps, Scene Objects

A Stage scene is made of objects you can select, name and arrange. A tree, wall, note, camera and group each have a place in **Structure**, so a complex scene can remain understandable even when objects overlap in the view.

Save A Camera And Render

Visual Space manual, Live Apps, Save A Camera And Render

Save a deliberate camera view, combine it with a mood brief, and generate an image you can revisit in Docs. You can complete the camera preparation without generating an image; the render step uses the space's AI credits. You must be the scene author to render, with space-owner authority or **Use AI credits** permission in its area. A configured Agent and a readable, nonempty credit balance are also required.

Cut A Cave Into Terrain

Visual Space manual, Live Apps, Cut A Cave Into Terrain

Cut an opening or hollow into a solid terrain platform. The cave shape represents the volume to remove, so part of it must intersect the platform to produce an opening. You need an editable terrain with **Include bottom and sides** enabled. Open terrain has no solid body for this operation. An imported cutting shape must be a closed static mesh with no more than 30,000 triangles.

Create A Scene

Visual Space manual, Live Apps, Create A Scene

Build a small scene that answers one design question, such as where people enter a courtyard or how seating fits around a meeting area. By the end, you will have named objects, a useful view and a saved document you can reopen. You need to be signed in and have access to the space area where you are creating the scene. The new scene's author can edit it; other eligible members can view it.

Compare Alternative Layouts

Visual Space manual, Live Apps, Compare Alternative Layouts

Keep up to three arrangements in one scene and switch between them during review. This guide uses Variants so that each choice remains editable instead of becoming a disconnected screenshot. You need to be the scene author. Variant choices change saved visibility, so decide how you want the scene to look when other viewers open it.

Build A Room

Visual Space manual, Live Apps, Build A Room

Create a simple room outline, add a door and window, and inspect the resulting space. This guide uses one editable wall run so that corners, openings, floor and roof remain connected. Open a scene you authored. Use a clear view of the ground or supporting surface before drawing.

Modeling And Sculpting

Visual Space manual, Live Apps, Modeling And Sculpting

Poly offers three ways to develop a model: edit its components, apply a stack of modifiers, or sculpt its surface. Choose the approach that matches the change you want, rather than rebuilding a shape for every adjustment.
