# Object Editor
### What is an Object?
Forget what you already know about knowledge management tools. 
At Anytype we have created the concept that everything you create is an Object. Pages, Notes, Recipes, Books, Movies, Audio, Humans. 
These are all **Objects** that are organized and categorized by **Types**. 
You can connect different **Object Types** by **Relations** and see how this is visualized on the **Graph**.
You will see in your **Library** that you can create Object Types. 
In short, an Object is a generalizing term for what you are creating. If it is a page, note, or other Type that you have created. 
The Object will be organized by the Type of object that it is.  
It is any node in your graph. The smallest linkable unit. Still classified with types.

# Create an Object
### Find the plus sign
On the bottom left hand corner you will see a grey circle with a white "+" inside. 
This plus sign is the magic butting to create a new object at any time. 
From there you will have the default choices of types to select, and you can also search through your other types.

### Forward Slash Command
When working in Anytype you can create a new Object by typing the "/". This will bring up the list of Objects that you have created. Simply select the Object you'd like to create and it will be linked at your current place.&#x20;

You can also link to an existing Object here.&#x20;
### Use a Shortcut
For a quick creation of a new Object, you can use this shortcut: ⌘+N
This will perform the same action as clicking the "+" sign.&#x20;
### Turn Into Object
If you are working on something in a current existing Object and would like to transform only a certain block into an Object, you can.&#x20;
Using two ways...
\#1, Hover to the left side of the block that you are working on and click the 3 dots.&#x20;
\#2, use ⌘+/.
It will bring up this menu:&#x20;

# Finding your Objects
### Use the Graph
To find all of your objects and how they are connected, you can look to the Graph for your main source of truth.
Read more about the [Broken link](broken-reference "mention")
### Browse through EVERYTHING
Additionally, to see in a list view all of the objects you've created, by default there is a page titled Everything which will show you your objects and their types.&#x20;
Look for a page titled Everything with this emoji: :globe\_with\_meridians:
### Use the Search
As a last resort, if you still can't find what you're looking for, try and search for it.&#x20;
To navigate to the search, head to your graph page, and find the magnifier in the top right corner.

# Linking Objects
### Relations on the Graph
In your documents you may have multiple references or connections which could be attached to other work in your library. The Graph is the visualizer for this. Objects connected to other objects, connected to humans, or tasks.&#x20;
Learn more about [relations](../relations/ "mention") & The [graph.md](../graph.md "mention") here.&#x20;
![](<../../.gitbook/assets/image (22).png>)
### Use the Flow
Another option to check which objects are linked together can be found in the tab just next to the Graph.&#x20;
On the top, center of your screen you will see the option to toggle to **Flow** view. This will show you which object is linked before and after the current object you are viewing.
