The Library holds your studio's files and links. Anything you add elsewhere in Plya, such as a file on a canvas or an image in a note, shows up here too.
The rail
| Item | Shows |
|---|---|
| All files | Every file you've uploaded |
| Links | Links you've saved |
| Collections | Your own groups of files and links. New collection makes one; rename or delete from its menu |
| Operations, Brand | Your studio kit. These two can't be deleted |
| From across Plya | Files added in Projects, Network, Finance, the canvas and Notes |
| Not used anywhere | Files that aren't on any record or canvas |
| Publications | Press outlets chosen by Plya. Save to Links adds one to your Links |
| By record | Files linked to one project, contact or organization |
Files can be up to 50 MB each. Click a file to see it: images show large and PDFs open in the browser's viewer. Rename a file from its menu, or by clicking its name when it's open.
Right-click a file, link or collection
Right-click a file in the grid or list for Open, Rename, Add to collection and Delete. Inside a collection, Remove from that collection is there too. The file's ··· shows the same list. Deleting asks you to confirm and names everywhere the file is used.
Right-click a collection in the rail for Rename, Move up, Move down and Delete. Right-click a link for Edit, Move to and Delete, and a file in a studio kit slot for Open, Move out of the slot and Remove from the collection. Each matches its ···.
The studio kit
The kit keeps the documents and details you're always asked for in one place. Each kit shows "N of M filled".
