    • You can highlight multiple designs at once and bring them all into your project.

  6. Once added to your project, each graphic will have a "hamburger" menu button that you can click to reveal additional options. Select Rename to change the name of the graphic inside your project, Modify Graphic Design will allow you to edit the design using the Designer tool. Export to save the graphic as an .nbtitle file or Delete to remove the graphic from your project. (Note: Delete only removes the graphic from your project, it does not delete it from the Library).
