A collection saves up to 9 images as one reference, so a product, character or brand stays consistent, even in views you never drew.
Six photos of the same red molded plastic chair (front, front three-quarter, left, rear, rear three-quarter and right) selected on the Workbench, marked 1. The Add to library button in the toolbar above them is marked 2. Its Add to library as... menu lists Individual assets (6), Folder and Collection, with Collection marked 3 and a hover card that reads Save up to nine images that teach Vizcom a style, object, or brand language, above a Learn More button.

Select the images (1), click Add to library (2) and choose Collection (3).

Use a collection

Type @ in a Modify prompt and pick it from Collections:

​
Examples

The Collection Details panel for a Style collection named Gradient with five images of pale geometric shapes on soft blue backdrops. Next to it, a tan and brown camera on a plain background, a Modify block with the prompt Render this camera with @gradient set to 16:9 and Pro, and the result: the same camera on a cool blue gradient backdrop.

A Style collection of five images. Prompt: "Render this camera with @gradient."

A Modify block with a connected clock image and the prompt render this clock lamp in @Frosted acrylic glass, clock mechanism is sitting inside, set to Aspect Ratio Original, Mode Pro and Resolution 2K. Next to it, twelve renders in a four by three grid: clocks with orange faces set in frosted acrylic blocks, seen from different angles, all in the same material.

Prompt: "render this clock lamp in @Frosted acrylic glass, clock mechanism is sitting inside."

Tips

  • Five images that agree beat nine that don’t.
  • For an Object collection, cover front, side, back, three-quarter and a detail.
  • Up to 3 collections per prompt. A collection in This File works only in that file.
