Frequently Asked Questions
If I share and move a drawing to a folder, will it affect other users?
If it is a private drawing at Home, it will not affect other users. Every user is free to organize or move their drawing to any folders without affecting another user.
If the drawing is in a Team, then the entire team will be affected.
What happens if a user trashed the drawing I shared to them?
If an Owner trashed a drawing, then the shared drawing will also be trashed for other users.
Otherwise, the drawing will only be trashed for that particular user who trashed the drawing, while all other users will not be affected.
Can a user create a new drawing from shared drawing?
