For this reason, we recommend renaming your edited version of the original scrapbook to be different from the original scrapbook.

A scrapbook can hold any content you create, including title blocks, drawings, and styles (such as colors and line thickness).

To open the Scrapbooks panel, click its name in the panel tray or, if its not on-screen, select Window Scrapbooks.

But whether youre using a premade or custom scrapbook, adding scrapbook items to your document works the same way.

If the scrapbook contains multiple pages, an arrow appears next to the scrapbook name, and you can select a specific page from the list.

Alternately, click the Next Page or Previous Page buttons (right next to the drop-down list) to navigate to the page you need.

A preview of the scrapbook items appears in the main area of the Scrapbooks panel.

If youre unable to drag a scrapbook entity into your document, check that the Select tool is active.

To stamp multiple instances of an entity, click the scrapbook entity that you want to stamp in the Scrapbooks panel and then click in the document area wherever you want to stamp an instance of the entity.

After your LayOut document has all the entities you need, follow these steps to transform your.layout file into a scrapbook (the steps reflect your current operating system).

When you want to use elements from your scrapbook, this name is what appears in the Scrapbooks panels drop-down list of options.

Simply follow these steps, which reflect your current operating system.

Alternately, navigate to the location where you want to create a new folder, click Make New Folder, and type a name for the folder.

Back in the LayOut Preferences dialog box, your folder appears in the list of designated scrapbook folders.

Alternately, navigate to the location where you want to create a new folder, click New Folder, type a name for the folder, and click Create.

If you ever want to eliminate the folder from your list of scrapbook locations, return the Folders preferences and click the Restore Defaults button the in Scrapbooks area.

All the other user (or you) needs to do is open the file and follow the steps to save the file as a scrapbook on their computer.

If you designate a folder on a network as a scrapbook folder, you can simply share the network folder.

If the scrapbook has more than one page, the first page of the scrapbook file appears, and you can use the Next Page ( ) and Previous Page ( ) buttons on the default toolbar to navigate to the page you want to edit.

These edits are reflected in the scrapbook in the Scrapbooks panel.

Instead, LayOut will create a copy of the default scrapbook, and when you save your changes a new LayOut file will be saved in your User folder.
