Organizing assets with Vyond Collections! (Beta)

Vyond users can organize assets into Collections. Collections are a great way to manage assets for specific projects. Collections can be named, deleted, and renamed. Assets within a collection can also be deleted. Collections are available for Professional, Agency and Enterprise users.

Assets that can be added to a collection include: 

  • Uploaded assets
  • Vyond assets
  • Scenes and templates
  • Assets from the content panel, from the stage and timeline
  • Color Palettes (Agency and Enterprise users only) 

Collections are not yet searchable in global search. 

Please note that Collections is in beta testing. As such, your feedback and suggestions are appreciated. If you have any questions, suggestions, or technical issues, you can submit a support request by clicking here.
