The Design Pod Editor is part of Step 2: Create Design Pods during the Upload process. The design pod editor can be used for multiple scenarios. A few examples:

  • Remove a design pod to prevent uploading to your library
  • Modify a design pod during the upload process
  • Regroup individual files to create design pods


Let's get started!

Design Pod Editor Overview

There are three main sections:

A. Upload Folder Viewer

B. File Search and Selection Window

C. Selected Files Viewer



Upload Folder Viewer (A)


The Upload Folder Viewer (A) shows all folders and subfolders that were previously selected for upload. Initially, you will NOT see any individual files in the File Search and Selection Window (B). 


In the example below, a folder of multiple designs was selected to be uploaded (Christmas). This design contains two subfolders (JKD Christmas Cookie Trio Sketch, JKD Christmas Trees with Bows Cross Stitch Embroidery) containing design files.


Upload Folder Viewer Example


Scroll down to the design preview list.


NOTE: When there are individual files within the main upload folder, they will be combined into one design pod and be located at the top of the design preview list. You can choose to remove this design pod or modify with the editor. In this example, it is Pod Number 3. 


Now click the REMOVE button next to a design pod.


Below Design Pod Editor Example


In this example, Pod Number 3 was removed. This is how a particular design pod can be removed during the upload process. Continue reading if you also wish to edit or regroup the design pods.


With the design pod removed, click on the Christmas folder in the Upload Folder Viewer (A). The individual file(s) is now displayed in the File Search and Selection Window (B). 


Next, let's create a new design pod from the file(s) in the File Search and Selection Window (B). Select the individual file(s) in the File Search and Selection Window (B) and click Select Files. You can use Ctrl + click to select multiple files at a time.



In the Selected Files Viewer (C), the individual file(s) selected will be displayed. Click Group Files to create a new design pod.
