Tabbed folders and scrollbars in Boards

We’ve introduced tabbed folders: an extra way to organize and visually scan files using clearly labeled tabs. This layout supports drag-and-drop reordering, renaming, and adding new tabs. Think of tabbed folders as your space to bundle related content– all your files and context in one place, neatly organized in tabs you can scan at a glance.

To try out tabbed folders:

  • Create a new tabbed folder from Create new in your navbar or in the file banner in parent directories.
  • Convert an existing folder by going to the folder options menu and select Switch to tabbed layout.

You can switch back to the classic folder view at any time.

Learn more in our help center, or see how the Whimsical team uses tabbed folders in our blog.


Things are looking up...down and sideways too!

We've added vertical and horizontal scrollbars to boards, so it’s easier to navigate and find your way around.


Quick-add just got...quicker. Here's what's new:

  • Quick-add is always on - You don't have to enter a special mode or wonder where it went after accidentally disabling it. Just create a shape and quick-add will pop up, ready to go.
  • Works in all directions - You can now quick-add shapes above existing ones, not just beside or below them as it was before.

You can now paste text directly onto selected objects to add new text or replace what’s already there. Works for any object that supports text input.


We've expanded table snapping so you can line things up without getting stuck between a row and a hard place:

  • When resizing a table, its borders and dividers will snap to nearby objects.
  • When resizing or moving other board objects, they will snap to table column dividers and borders.

Syntax highlighting in code blocks now supports more languages:

  • Dart
  • GraphQL
  • Groovy
  • PowerShell
  • Scala
  • TOML
  • Zig
