Add items or sets to the Library
The Library panel contains predesigned templates for menus and other design elements, such as buttons, images, and
shapes. If you have still images, logos, buttons, and menus that you use frequently, you can store them in the Library,
where you can quickly access them from any project. To keep them organized, you can group them into sets. The
Library imports layered Photoshop files, as well as BMP, GIF, JPEG, PNG, and TIFF images.
The Library categorizes items you add based on their content. Menus and buttons require special layer-name
prefixes. (See “About menus” on page 58.)
