# Collections

> Save up to 9 images as one Library asset that shows Vizcom a product, style or brand, then mention it as @Name.

Where to find it
Select images > **Add to library** > **Collection**. Use it with **@** in Modify.

Works in
Workbench and Studio

Credits
None to save. Runs cost the usual [Modify](https://docs.vizcom.com/vizcom-credits.md#modify) credits.

## Use a collection

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

* "Render @Camera 3 onto the sketch composition in @1 hanging from a wrist strap."
* "Redesign the shoe in @1 using the details from @Trail Runner Brand. Keep the silhouette unchanged."

## 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.](https://mintcdn.com/vizcom-c4034e9b/I-2hvc0QrsSa4kp4/images/examples/collections-gradient.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=I-2hvc0QrsSa4kp4\&q=85\&s=122e94c6f81922ad3461cf4b889212fc)

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.](https://mintcdn.com/vizcom-c4034e9b/I-2hvc0QrsSa4kp4/images/examples/collections-acrylic.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=I-2hvc0QrsSa4kp4\&q=85\&s=8668467da238702fb2281a5173edb9fd)

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.
