Reusing wireframe elements with components

Balsamiq supports the concept of Components. A Component is a group of UI elements that represents a single piece of functionality. It is often used for parts of the user interface that show up on several screens. Other software sometimes refers to this feature as templates, master pages, custom components, or widgets.

In essence, Components let you create reusable common elements that you can use across different boards.
