# Objects
|
||||
|
||||
### 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, _everything!_ 
|
||||
|
||||
These are all **Objects** that are organized and categorized by **Types**. 
|
||||
|
||||
You can connect different **Types** by **Relations** and see how this is visualized on the **Graph**.
|
||||
|
||||
You will see in your **Library** that you can create new 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.

# Working with Blocks
|
||||
|
||||
Your object is made up of different types of blocks to organize your information. Anytype's block-based editor works very similarly to that of blogging sites or website builders.
|
||||
|
||||
All block styles originate from the command menu, which you can access by either clicking on the orange `+` symbol on the left-hand side of your editor, or typing `/`. 
|
||||
|
||||
From here, you'll see more than twenty different block-types you can add to your object. 
|
||||

||||

|
||||
|
||||
### Style your Blocks
|
||||
|
||||
You can select one block or several at once, and batch edit to create different headings and text styles such as checkboxes, bullets, or numbers.
|
||||

||||

|
||||
|
||||
### Drag & Drop to Format
|
||||
|
||||
You can use the orange 'handle' to the left of each block to create parent/child blocks or new columns in your editor.

# More Ways to Create Objects
|
||||
|
||||
### 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.
|
||||
|
||||
<figure><img src="../../.gitbook/assets/image (5).png" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>
|
||||
|
||||
You can also link to an existing Object here.
|
||||
|
||||
### 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.
|
||||
|
||||
### Turn Into Object
|
||||
|
||||
If you are working on something in an existing Object and would like to transform only a certain block into an Object, you can do that trough the action menu by either:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Hovering to the left side of the block that you are working on and clicking the 3 dots.
|
||||
2. Using the ⌘+/ keyboard shortcut.

# Locating 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 [graph.md](../../basics/graph.md "mention") here.
|
||||
|
||||
### Browse through EVERYTHING
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally, to all of the objects you've created in list view, by default there is a set of 'Everything' which will show you your objects and their types.
|
||||
|
||||
Look for an object 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.
|
||||
|
||||
To navigate to the search, head to your graph page, and find the magnifier in the top right corner.

|
||||
## Linking New Objects
|
||||
|
||||
You have 3 ways to link an object to another existing object:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Trough the canvas directly by either using:
|
||||
1. **Block Links.** The slash character to invoke a command bar, and then looking for the link to object option in the menu.
|
||||
2. **Inline Links**. The @ character to invoke the object picker menu.
|
||||
2. Trough relations by using an object relation type and then going trough the same object picker menu.
|
||||
|
||||
### Date mentions
|
||||
|
||||
You can use **Inline Links** to quickly link to either absolute or relative dates.
|
||||
|
||||
Some examples:
|
||||
|
||||
* @now or @today 
|
||||
* @tomorrow 
|
||||
* @nextweek 
|
||||
* @nextmonth
|
||||
* @24/8/2023

## Checking Existing Links
|
||||
|
||||
### 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. 
|
||||
|
||||
Learn more about [relations](../relations/ "mention") & The [graph.md](../../basics/graph.md "mention") here.

|
|||
Another option to check which objects are linked together can be found in the tab just next to the Graph. 
|
||||
|
||||
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.
|
||||
|
||||
### Collections
|
||||
|
||||
Collections also use links to manage what is shown in their canvas. To add an existing object to a collection, use the **Link To** option from the object context menu.
