Visual Flow Editor
Build supported automation steps visually and inspect the resulting program.
The Visual tab displays supported automation actions and logic as node cards. Visual edits produce Lua source for the same automation. The visual editor cannot represent every Lua program; manual source edits can leave the graph out of date.
Open Visual
Open an automation in Editor and choose Visual. For a blank graph, choose Add step or press / to open the step picker.
Add and configure a step
Search Search steps…, choose a supported step and configure its fields in the step inspector. The available operations depend on the editor context and account features. Connect the steps in the order required by the operation.
Navigate the graph
Use Select, Pan, the zoom controls and Fit view to navigate. Tidy up layout arranges the graph. Open the API documentation when you need the meaning of an input or result.
Test the program
Set its parameters and use Preview or Run. Inspect the result and output; a connected graph alone does not establish that it selects the objects or produces the geometry you intended.
Handle source differences
If Lua cannot be parsed or uses unsupported language features, the editor reports that it cannot display the program. Use Code when available to correct or continue editing it. Read stale-graph warnings before changing the graph after manual code edits.
