The short version

Open Library from the rail and pick a tab, such as Images, Notes, Designs, or Palettes, to see one type. Switch between Gallery view and List view, sort by date or name, and search by name. Use folders, Move file, Copy to Hub, and Archive to keep things in order. It's on every plan.

Library is everything you’ve made or saved in Visualist, with a tab for each type. Use the tabs to narrow what you see, then sort, search, and file things into folders.

Browse by type

Open Library from the rail. The tabs across the top are All, Images, Notes, Designs, Palettes, Videos, Audio, Files, Forms, Pages, Products, Folders, and Artifacts. Each tab has its own button to add that type, such as New design, New note, or Upload image.

Organize your Library

  1. Open your Library. Open Library from the rail.
  2. Choose a tab. Select a tab across the top, such as All, Images, Notes, Designs, Palettes, or Folders.
  3. Change the view. Select Gallery view or List view.
  4. Sort. Open Sort by and choose Date updated, Date created, or Name. Select Reverse sort order to flip the order.
  5. Move files into folders. Open a file’s menu and choose Move file, then pick a folder.

Your sort, view, and search carry across the tabs.

Folders, Hubs, and archiving

  • Create a folder. Select the Folders tab, then New folder. Or select the + button (Create) and choose Create folder.
  • Put a file in a Hub. Open the file’s menu and choose Copy to Hub. Hubs are on the Core plan and the Growth plan.
  • Set a file aside. Choose Archive from the file’s menu. It leaves your main view but isn’t deleted.
  • Delete a file. Choose Move to bin. See How do I delete and restore files?.

If something goes wrong

  • The search box doesn’t find a file. The Search by name box on the Library page matches file names. To search by keyword, color, or image, select Search in the top bar. See How do I search my Library?.
  • A file you archived is missing. Open the account menu on the rail and choose Show archived.
Good to know

Use a Hub for work that belongs to one client project, and Library for everything you want to find and reuse across your work.
