Everything is drawn as a spread (two pages side by side) with 3 mm bleed and a 5 mm safe margin. - **The shape of the book** follows a bound one: a cover, a single first page on the right (page 1, where a title page or a dedication goes), the spreads, a single last page on the left, and a back cover. The first and last pages take the cover layouts and, like the covers, stay where they are; new spreads always go between them. Page numbers, when switched on, count from the first page, and the number on screen is the number that prints. Books made before this had no single pages and keep their numbering as it was. - **Auto layout** has two entries. **This spread** builds the spread on screen again from the journal entry it came from, and is only offered on a spread that came from one. **The whole book** replaces every page, keeping your title and page setup. Both are ordinary undo steps, so you can press one, look at it, and undo. -- **Pages, Content, Layouts, Elements and Travel** are the sections of the left rail, in the order a book is made, with **Theme** and **Layers** set apart below them. The rail and the tabs inside its panels answer to the arrow keys. Content holds the journey's own photos and entries, with **Upload photos** and, when Immich or Synology Photos is connected, **From Immich** or **From Synology Photos** to add photos from your library the way the journey gallery does; Layouts opens on **Designed pages**, whole pages laid out by a designer: 48 covers in twelve styles (spine band, poster, cut-out, postcard, grid and badge, minimal, stamps, riso, editorial, vintage poster, night film, field notes) for the cover and the other single pages, and 60 double spreads for the pages between, five in each style. Each card shows the page you are on as the click will lay it, with its own photos and words in the template and in the book's theme, and the style chips narrow the set to one look. Below them come the book's own layouts and the built-in ones: thirteen spread layouts (Hero and story, Four up, Strip and text, Mosaic and so on) plus a separate set of five for the cover and back; Elements has six tabs: text styles, shapes, lines, empty frames with their frame styles and grids, a searchable icon library, and the stickers; Travel builds figures out of the journey itself: route maps, country outlines and lists, flags, date, day and distance marks, and a trip summary. Theme sets the look of the whole book, and Layers lists the page front to back. +- **Pages, Content, Layouts, Elements and Travel** are the sections of the left rail, in the order a book is made, with **Theme** and **Layers** set apart below them.

Theme sets the look of the whole book (**Choose a theme** at first, **Change the theme** afterwards), and Layers lists the page front to back. - **Properties** on the right edits whatever is selected, in the same order for every kind: what the element is or says (a text's words, a photo's crop and focal point, a shape), then its position and size, then its look (type, colour, fill, frame, corner), then its effects, and last **Arrange** (aligning, stacking, grouping, copying a style, and a button that shows the page in Layers). The groups you set rarely start folded and open by themselves on an element that already uses them. With nothing selected it shows the page background, the book's theme and the page numbers. An element that auto layout tied to a journal entry follows that entry until you edit it here, which breaks the link. +- **Assistant**: with the AI assistant addon on, the **Assistant** toggle in the Studio bar (*Design the book together with the assistant*) opens a **Book assistant** window that you can move and resize. It can answer questions and change the book. Before it sees anything, a notice explains that only the page you are working on goes to your AI provider, as a picture showing just the photos you added yourself; **Show it pages** allows that, **Not now** keeps it closed. For someone who may only view the book, it answers questions but changes nothing. - **Copy and paste**: a selected element copies with Ctrl+C and pastes on any page with Ctrl+V or the paste button. - **My layouts**: **Save this page as a layout** keeps the arrangement of a page without its photos, for every editor of the book, and applying it lays another page out the same way while keeping that page's photos and words. A book keeps up to 24 layouts. - **Export** opens a print view that your browser turns into a PDF. Pick **Single pages** (one leaf per sheet, what a printer wants) or **Spreads** (two pages at a time, the way the book opens), with optional crop marks that add the bleed on every edge and mark where to cut.
