Toolbars & Panels

This page is the reference for the controls of the Blueprint Editor. Most buttons show only an icon; the names below are the ones you see when you hover over them. The top toolbar has three groups:

A — Run and debug

Control	What it does
Open workspace navigation	Opens or closes the app sidebar with Projects, Settings, Members, API Keys, and Integrations.
Live execution (play / pause)	Turns Live mode on or off. While it runs, your Blueprints re-run every time you change inputs or logic.
Execution pill	Names the Blueprint that runs live — or says what is missing, such as 4 required inputs missing. Click it for the details of the last run.
Jump to first step, Previous step, Select step, Next step, Jump to last step	Step through the trace of the last run. See Stepping through a trace.
Step into sub-blueprint, Step out to parent blueprint	Follow a trace into a Blueprint that a Call node runs, and back out. Available on Call nodes and inside called Blueprints.
Test status	Shows how many test cases the project has, and how many passed, failed, or have not run. See Test Suites.

B — Edit and view

Control	What it does
Undo, Redo	Undo or redo your last edits. The tooltip names the change it would undo or redo.
Search (⌘K)	Opens Search project — see Search.
Settings	Opens the editor settings — see Editor settings.
Center Diagram, Zoom In, Zoom Out	Fit and zoom the diagram of a maximized Blueprint.
Minimize	Returns from a maximized Blueprint or the type canvas to the full document. Disabled when nothing is maximized.

Control	What it does
Design / Playground / Insights	Switches what the editor shows: building and editing, the Playground, or Insights about production. Only the active mode shows its name.
Release	Creates a release. The button also shows whether production is up to date, for example Released v1.0 or 3 changes since v1.0.
Share	Opens the Share menu: Connect, n8n, Code, Embed, PNG, Export, and Link.

Editor settings

Settings opens five switches. Each one shows its name when you hover over it, and your choices are remembered in your browser.

Switch	What it controls
Business logic	Shows or hides the expressions inside the diagram nodes, so you can read the flow by its labels alone
Descriptions	Shows or hides the descriptions of sections and nodes
AI Copilot Suggestions	Turns AI completion suggestions on or off while you type an expression
Minimap	Shows or hides the minimap on the right edge of the document
Expression tooltips	Turns the explanations on or off that appear when you hover over an expression — for example, whether a name is an input, an output, or a local variable

On the type canvas, Settings also offers Layout: compact and Layout: columns to arrange the type cards.

Contents sidebar

The Contents sidebar on the left is the project’s table of contents. Click an entry to scroll the document to it; double-click a Blueprint or section to maximize it.

Element	What it is
Type Definitions	Jumps to the project’s types.
Public / Private	The two groups of Blueprints. Drag a Blueprint from one group to the other to change its visibility.
Blueprint rows with numbered sections	Every Blueprint with its sections (1, 1.1, 1.1.1, …). Error handlers are marked with a red icon.
⚡ Execution scope	Marks the Blueprint that runs in Live mode. Click the spark next to another Blueprint (Set as execution scope) to run that one instead. It only affects runs in the editor, not what callers can reach.
⇆ Show inputs and outputs	Expands a Blueprint’s inputs and outputs in the sidebar, for a quick run — see below.
Dependencies	A graph at the bottom showing which Blueprints call which.
‹ (Collapse left sidebar)	Hides the sidebar to give the document more room.

Quick run from the Contents sidebar

The Contents sidebar with the Loan Application Scorecard Blueprint expanded — the green spark marks the Execution Scope, and the Inputs and Outputs are listed below with fields to set values and the results of the last run

Click ⇆ next to a Blueprint to show its parameters in line:

Inputs — each input shows its name, its type, and a field to set a value
Outputs — each output shows its name, its type, and its value from the most recent run

Set the input values, then run the Blueprint or leave Live mode running. See Test your Blueprint. The right sidebar holds the panels you work with next to the document. A tab strip at the top switches between them; the tabs show icons, and the active tab its name.

Tab	What the panel shows
Tests	The test suites of the Blueprint you are working on. Click the Blueprint’s name at the top of the panel to see the suites of all Blueprints.
Agent	The Lab Agent chat.
Findings	Problems Leapter finds in your project — see Findings.
Comments	Comments on Blueprints, sections, and nodes — see Collaborating.
Timeline	The project’s change history — see Timeline.

In the sidebar’s top-right corner:

Detach panel — opens the Tests, Agent, or Findings panel in a separate window. Attach panel puts it back.
› (Collapse right sidebar) — hides the sidebar; Expand right sidebar brings it back.

In the document

The Specification view has its own controls, most of which appear when you hover over a heading or a row:

Control	Where	What it does
Chevron (Expand / Collapse chapter)	Next to a heading	Shows or hides a chapter or section.
Copy link to section	Next to a heading	Copies a link straight to this place in the document.
Maximize	Right of a heading	Opens the Blueprint or section in the Diagram view.
⋮ Blueprint actions	Right of a Blueprint heading	Section (at the end of the Blueprint), Make public / Make private, Delete blueprint
⋮ Section actions	Right of a section heading	Section (inside this one), Handle an error, Delete section
Add a section here	Between two sections	Inserts a new section at that point.
Inputs · Outputs · Locals	Under a Blueprint’s description	Shows or hides the Blueprint’s parameters.
Type pill (Show details for type)	In a parameter row	Shows the definition of the type.
Chevron (Edit definition)	At the end of a row	Opens the card to edit a parameter or a type.
Add an input / Add an output / Add a local	Below the parameter groups	Adds a parameter.
Outputs	Below a diagram, after a run	The values the run produced.
Minimap	Right edge of the document	An overview of the whole project; click to jump.

The steps behind these controls are described in Specification View. When you select an element in a diagram, a small toolbar appears next to it with actions for that element. See Inline Editing.

Search

Press ⌘K (Ctrl+K on Windows) or click Search (⌘K) in the top toolbar to open Search project. Type a word and Leapter searches the whole project — names, labels, descriptions, expressions, and values of Blueprints, types, tests, comments, and findings. Each result shows where it was found and what matched.
