Create a collection

Select one or more symbols, images, or text to convert them into a collection.

Note: You cannot convert an XY plot or events table into a collection. An asset comparison table can only be converted into a single-symbol collection by adding dynamic search criteria. See Add dynamic search criteria.

1. Convert one or more symbols, images, or text into a collection:

   • To convert a single symbol, right-click the symbol and click Convert to Collection.

   • To convert multiple symbols, select the desired symbols by holding CTRL or by dragging a selection box around them, and then right-click one of the selected symbols and click Convert to Collection.

   The collection replicates your selected objects for each related asset inside a separate canvas, which you can scroll, move, or resize.

   Note: To resize the collection canvas, you must enter Design mode.

2. To change the search criteria for the collection, right-click the collection and then click Edit Collection Criteria to open the Edit Collection Criteria pane.

3. To format the collection, right-click the collection and then click Format Collection to open the Format Collection pane.
