Architecture View Editor

Open a View and enter edit mode to choose and arrange the elements needed for its purpose.

Edit Safely

The editor separates the View's presentation from the underlying model. Moving a node changes its placement in this View. Editing a selected System or Relationship changes the canonical resource used elsewhere.

Check the active version and read/edit mode before making either kind of change.

Canvas Workflow

1. Define the View's audience and review question.
2. Add only the necessary Systems and hierarchy depth.
3. Reveal or create the Relationships needed for the story.
4. Arrange the canvas or use auto-layout as a starting point.
5. Inspect selected resources in the detail panel.
6. Watch save-state feedback before navigating away.
7. Open documentation to add narrative, resource sections, and reusable Documents.

Use pan, zoom, minimap, selection, and inspector controls consistently with the other Archflow workbenches. Keep labels legible and avoid overlapping edges or unexplained crossings.

Read Mode

Return to read mode when presenting or reviewing. This reduces accidental editing while retaining selection and inspection.
