## Set up a project

**1. Open the team**

Click the project's team in the sidebar 2.

**2. Make a folder**

Click **New folder**, name it and click **Create**.

**3. Create files in it**

Click **Create new file** 3 inside the folder.

**4. Bring in your drafts**

In **My Files**, right-click a draft and choose **Move**, or drag it onto a folder.

**5. Give each file a cover**

In the file, right-click its best image and choose **Set as thumbnail**.

## Organize the canvas with sections

![The Workbench in a file named Running shoe colorways. A section titled Final colorways holds four running shoe colorway renders in a two by two grid. Four more colorways to its right are selected, with the multi-select toolbar (Arrange, Add to library, Section, Download, Duplicate) above them. Callouts mark 1 the Section tool in the top toolbar, 2 the section title and 3 the Section button in the selection toolbar.](https://mintcdn.com/vizcom-c4034e9b/FHfxWMtC8cMIGOnx/images/find/organize-section.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=FHfxWMtC8cMIGOnx\&q=85\&s=910778d6abe32272b373d12ca9d6239a)

The Section tool (1), a section title (2), and Section in the selection toolbar (3).

* **Wrap a selection:** select two or more items and press <kbd>Shift</kbd> + <kbd>S</kbd>, or click **Section** 3.
* **Rename:** double-click the title 2.
* **Export everything in it:** right-click the section > **Export...**.
* **Remove section** keeps what's inside; **Delete** removes both.

## Find a file again

Use **Search all files**, or sort **Recents** by date. Move the pointer across a thumbnail to preview the file's images.

## Delete and restore

1. Right-click a file or folder and choose **Delete**.
2. Open **Trash** 5, click the file's **⋯** menu and choose **Restore**.

Trash lists files, not folders. A restored file whose folder was deleted returns to the top level.

## Good to know

* **My Files is private:** even Workspace Admins can't open files there.
* **Name files for search:** "Trail runner, colorways v2", not "Untitled 14".
* **Duplicate before a big change** to keep the old version.
