Finding your way around
The sidebar, the organisation switcher, the project header, the editor chrome — what each region is for.
The interface has three layers of navigation: the sidebar on the left, the project header inside a project, and the module chrome inside an editor. They nest, so you can always tell how deep you are.
The sidebar
Always present, and collapsible to icons if you want the width back. What it lists depends on where you are: on spacesync.app it is your personal sidebar; on an organisation's address it is the organisation's.
Personal
- My Projects
- Your personal projects — the ones you own or have been added to.
- Collab
- Projects other people own and have shared with you. The complement of My Projects, not a subset of it.
- Favourites
- Projects you have starred.
- Archives
- Archived projects. Read-only, and out of the way, but recoverable.
- Notifications
- Mentions, comment replies, invitations and system messages. See Notifications.
- Tutorials
- Opens this documentation.
- Help & Support
- The in-app FAQ and support assistant, which can escalate to a human.
Inside an organisation
- Search
⌘K(Ctrl+K) — jump to any project, teamspace or admin page by name.- Home
- Recently visited, Favourites, Organisation projects and Personal projects, plus any invitations waiting for you.
- Inbox
- Notifications, including organisation events — invitations, role changes, teamspace changes.
- Teamspaces
- The organisation's teamspaces, each expandable to its projects. Admins get a + to create one.
- Organisation projects
- Projects at the organisation's root — not in any teamspace. View all opens the full list.
- Personal
- Your own projects, favourites and archives. Private to you, even here.
- Settings & Admin
- The organisation's admin panel. Shown to Owners and Admins only. See Organisations.
Note
Tutorials under Resources opens this documentation. What's New beside it is still a placeholder — visible, but not yet active.
At the bottom sits the profile pill. It opens your profile, which is also where settings and preferences live — there is no separate settings screen in the sidebar.
The organisation switcher
At the top of the sidebar, in place of the logo, once you belong to at least one organisation. It lists Personal, each organisation you are a member of with your role, Organisation settings when you are an admin, and Sign out. Because each organisation has its own address, switching loads a different address — <org>.spacesync.app — so the page reloads. That is expected, not a bug.
Inside a project
The project header carries the project name, the collaborator and sharing controls, favourite and archive, and the entry points to AIRA, the iterations, SpaceStory and SpaceShow. On an organisation host a badge on each project card says where it lives — Organisation, a teamspace, or Personal.
Inside an editor
Editors use a consistent arrangement: a tool rail, a left panel for structure (levels, layers, sheets), a right panel for properties of whatever is selected, and a canvas in the middle. Both side panels can be toggled away.
