Are we able to create Elements and add them to Elements View and be able to see and access them in a totally new design file, or are the elements and the Elements View kind of only easily accessible in the file they were created in?

To add to this question, are we suppose to use Symbols for saving a design element from one file to be used again in different files later on?

Hi,

Elements are accessible for a new design and an existing design. I don't understand your second question. Can you please explain?

Thank you

Keri

Hi Keri, so I have a few designs that have segments or objects that I would like to use over again in possible future designs. I thought I could make that part I want to use again into an element and see that in Elements view in a totally new design, but it seems like the Elements can only be seen in the file they were created in. So then I wondered if what I was trying to achieve would be best done by creating symbols out of those segments or objects.

Hi Luebbers. You can copy an element from one file and paste to another, but to do that you must first find and open your old design which includes that element. Then you can copy and paste it, but this is the long route. I totally agree with you that Symbol tool will be faster to create some elements which you need more frequently.
