Canvas

The Canvas is in the center of the page and occupies most of the screen. It is the main workspace for creating a web page. All the elements that are displayed on the website are placed here.

Selecting the elements on the Canvas

You can select any element on the Canvas with:

double click : select the child of the topmost parent and so on down the hierarchy with subsequent clicks

Ctrl + click : “deep” selection - select directly the element on which the cursor is hovered (lowest in the hierarchy)

The selected element is highlighted with the blue outline and labelled at the top accordingly.
