Organizing the Canvas

Raven doesn't just make the definition work — it makes it readable. Layout, groups, labels, colours.


1. One prompt, a whole cleanup

"please clean up the canvas, group the components and organize it neatly"

Raven cleaning up and organizing a canvas

Watch what happens in that clip:

  1. Raven reads the graph and reasons about which components belong together.
  2. Components are repositioned into a clean left-to-right flow.
  3. Related components are wrapped into coloured, named groups — Parameters, Step Base Surface, Step Volume, Spiral Array, Display.
  4. The result lands in review with an accept/reject bar.

2. Labelling and colour

Every group Raven creates gets a nickname and a description — so the canvas documents itself. Group colour can be set too, which is what turns a long definition into something you can navigate at a glance.

"Group the panel logic and colour it blue."

Raven named these groups Parameters, Step Base Surface, Step Volume, Spiral Array and Display, and gave each its own colour — see the image at the top of this page.


3. Preview control

Raven can also toggle Rhino viewport preview per component — show these, hide everything else, or the inverse. Useful for isolating one part of a definition visually without disabling anything.

"Only show the facade preview."
