Create text & 3D
Create and organize text on the canvas, then open a 3D world workspace.
Use text nodes for scripts, notes, and prompts. A 3D world node opens a separate workspace where you can arrange content and adjust the camera.
Text nodes
Use a text node for scripts, shot directions, prompts, and any writing you need to review or reuse.
Create a text node
- Select
+in the left canvas toolbar; - Choose a text node;
- Select the node and enter your content;
- Select text and use the Toolbar to apply headings, body text, bold, italic, or lists;
- Click an empty part of the canvas to leave text editing.
You can also double-click an empty area and choose a text node.

These are the core tools used most often. The buttons shown may vary with the node state and product version.
3D worlds
A 3D world gives you a workspace for arranging a scene, placing content, and adjusting the camera. Use it to establish composition and camera position, then return to the canvas for the next step.
Create a 3D world
- Select
+in the left canvas toolbar; - Choose 3D World;
- Select the new 3D world node;
- Choose Enter 3D World in the Toolbar;
- Add or adjust the environment, content, and camera controls currently available;
- Exit the workspace when you are ready to return to the canvas.
If you already have a .glb file, select Upload in the Toolbar of an empty 3D world node to import the asset.
The 3D world entry may appear locked for some accounts; follow the access message shown on the page. Entering an empty workspace does not start model generation. Generative tools used inside the workspace consume Tapies based on the model and settings shown there.
Core 3D world node tools
| Tool | When to use it | What happens |
|---|---|---|
| Enter 3D World | Adjust the scene, content, or camera | Opens the 3D workspace for the current node |
| Upload | Add an existing .glb asset | Selects a file from your computer and imports it into the current node |
This section covers the main 3D world entry points on the canvas. Controls inside the 3D workspace may vary with the current content, account access, and product version.
