Adding artwork from the Library to your project ¶ You can also right-click in the library view, like this:įrom the pop-up menu, you can add the current selection to the library, rename the selected library graphic, or delete it.

You can also select something in your current project and click 'Import Graphic from Project' to add the selected artwork to the current library. This will let you import multiple files at once if you want to, and each one will become an entry in the current library. If you have files on your hard drive that you want to add you can click the Import button. Once created and selected, you can immediately start adding content to it. To create a new (empty) library, click the 'New' button and choose a location and a name to store the library file. Unloading a library file just removes it from your list of loaded libraries, but doesn't delete the file or its contents, which makes it easy to bring in seasonal or holiday specific libraries when you need them, then unload them to reduce clutter when you don't. LightBurn remembers which libraries you have loaded. You can copy library files between computers to share the contents. Library Files ¶Įach library you create is a file on your hard drive containing all the graphics inside it in a compact form. It does not store the cut or fill settings applied to the artwork. Note: The library only stores artwork, much like the contents of your AI, SVG, DXF, or image files. When you want to use something from the library, just grab the thumbnail from the right view and drag it into your project. Artwork can be easily imported into the library from files on your hard drive, or from a selection in your current project. On the left side of the window it shows the libraries that are currently loaded, and the right side shows the artwork in the currently selected library.

The Art Library is a way to quickly store and recall artwork that you use on a regular basis and want quick access to when designing.
