How To: Insert an element

Learn how to insert an element in the App Structure panel. Use this tour as a quick refresher.

Goal: Insert an element

Insertion from Structure works best when you first understand the tree as a map of valid placement points. This how-to starts from that idea, then explains how choosing the correct node keeps new content organized and reduces cleanup after the component is added.

Open the context menu

Right-click an element to access Insert options. This step matters because Open the context menu is part of the Structure panel, and understanding that context makes the next action easier to repeat in your own project.

Choose an Insert action

Pick Insert Before, Insert After, or Insert Child depending on where you want the new element.

Done

Use Insert Child when you want to nest the new element.
