Diagrams

 

Create a Document page. Tap + Create and select New document

To add a diagram object to a Nebo Document, tap + in the upper right corner of your page and select Diagram. Alternatively, double-tap with your finger in an empty space to open a contextual menu, then select Diagram.


If you want to adjust the size of the box tab on the box with your finger and adjust the size.

Draw your diagram (using your pencil).

- See the elements you can add on your Diagrams (Circles, elipses, arrows, connectors, etc)


Note: Diagrams with connections are exclusively functional on Document pages. While Notebooks, Boards, or PDF formats allow the use of perfect shapes for creating diagrams with separate items, they do not support the connectivity between elements.


Before (Hand-draw diagram with connectors)After (To convert, simply double-tap on the Diagram box)

When creating a diagram object, you can use the interactive ink gestures described in the Basic interactions tutorial:

  • Erase words or letters by scratching out the text. 
  • Make a break between 2 letters or words by drawing a straight vertical line downward. 
  • Join 2 separate letters or words by drawing a straight vertical line upward.

Each shape in your diagram can be:

  • Moved independently via drag-and-drop. 
  • Deleted using the erase gesture with your pen.

Use the double-tap gesture to convert diagrams to perfect shapes and typed text.
Nebo diagrams remain fully editable when pasted or imported into Powerpoint slides. If you're using Nebo for iPadOS or Windows, you can copy/paste your diagram into Powerpoint by tapping ... in the upper right corner of the diagram object and selecting Copy. If you're using Nebo on an Android device, you can export your diagram by tapping ... in the upper right corner of the diagram object and selecting Export.


Rotating shapes in a Diagram object

After perfecting a shape by holding the pen against the page for a brief moment post-drawing, you can rotate it in Diagram objects, Note sections, Notebooks and Board. To do this:

  1. Draw your shape, ensuring you hold the pen against the page until the shape perfects.
  2. Tap on the shape you wish to rotate.
  3. Use the rotation arrow to adjust the shape to your preferred angle.
  4. Always add text to the shape only after you've finalized its rotation


To adjust lines or arrows in Nebo:

  1. Tap the line or arrow to highlight it in blue, showing adjustment points at each end.
  2. Drag the adjustment points with your finger or stylus to change its position or angle.
  3. Moving a handle near another line or shape activates magnetism, turning the circle dark blue for precise alignment.
  4. Connecting lines reveals all handles for easy manipulation of connections and angles.
  5. Tap outside the object to finalize your adjustments.

This streamlined method allows for easy editing and creation of diagrams in your notes.
