Search for products in the Public Catalogs:

The first way you can search for products is heading over to the Public Catalogs in the navigation menu.

Browse through the brand catalogs or use the Search bar to search for your favorite brand.

You can also select View All Products to open the complete product catalog and use search or filters to find single or multiple brands there.

For Pro, Studio, and Custom users: Find a product that you want to remember for later? Click on that product and select "Save to My Catalog." Now, you can reference the My Catalog feature in the left-side navigation bar for easy look up to use in your Canvases later. Consider these your favorites.

Search for products in Canvas:

  1. Go to the bottom right corner of the opened Canvas and click the My Catalog icon.

  2. Search for products in the main search bar or with the Filters menu to narrow your search by Category, Condition, Buy Price, Lead Time, Manufacturer, Vendor, Tag, and Collection.

  3. When you find a product you like, just drag and drop it into the Canvas. You can also select multiple products to then drag into the Canvas all together at once by clicking on the checkboxes of each product card (in the upper left corner).

Want to browse all of the 2D vector drawings of the products? Click on the Image icon within the My Catalog sidebar and toggle to Drawing.

You can double click into a product to show a more detailed view with the pricing, the size, as well as the carbon footprint or just the images.

Now you can view the product as purely an image; you can also remove the background to give it more of a layering effect; view just its 2D vector drawing; or you can view the product card with all its specifications by toggling through the three viewing options seen above.

You can also search for products within your Canvas after they are placed in the Canvas. We know that mood boarding can get messy and all over the place - but that's part of the fun. Use the universal search keyboard shortcut, Control + F, to find what you're looking for. Clicking Control + F will search through product cards and text boxes that are in your Canvas.

Discover products in Templates:

You can browse for products within a . This really is a great way to start designing a digital mood board, creating a furniture schedule specification, and space plan with a floor plan.‍
