Organize documents into folders

Folders in Visure aren't created with a dedicated "create folder" action — they emerge when you nest one document inside another. To build a folder structure for your project, you create the documents you need, then either nest them at creation time or move them inside other documents afterward.

There are three ways to nest a document:

Method 1: "Inside selected document" at creation time

If you know at creation time that a new document should be a child of an existing one, do it in a single step:

1. In the Elements Panel, click the document that will act as the parent (the folder).
2. Click + Create.
3. Fill in the Create Document dialog as usual.
4. Check the Inside selected document checkbox.
5. Click + Create.

The new document is created directly inside the selected one. This is the fastest path when you're planning the structure upfront.

Method 2: Right-click → Move element

For documents that already exist:

1. In the Elements Panel, right-click the document you want to move.
2. Choose Move element from the context menu.
3. In the dialog, pick the destination document (which will become the parent).
4. Confirm.

The document moves inside the destination, which now displays as a folder.

Method 3: List View → drag and drop

Drag-and-drop in the Documents area only works in List View, not the default tree view.

1. Switch the Documents area to List View (toolbar at the top of the document list).
2. Click and hold the document you want to move.
3. Drag it onto the destination document.
4. Release to drop.

The document is now nested inside the destination. Switch back to the standard view to confirm the hierarchy.
