Everything happens on one screen: the canvas fills the window, and the controls sit around its edges.

Undo and Redo step through board changes.                                                                                                                                                  |
| 2 | **Board tools**                  | Add a text note, draw on the board, add an arrow or draw a rectangle. See [Notes and drawing](https://flashboards.yaroflasher.com/docs/boards/notes-and-drawing.md).                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            |

| 5 | **Prompt box**                   | Write the prompt, open prompt history, set aspect ratio and other options, turn on **Auto-Upscale** for image models, then click **Generate**.
