Saving Your Designs

Indigo Studio basics

Overview

Your prototypes may include a number of different designs. It is important that you keep them organized so you can access and share them easily. Here you'll find the save options Indigo Studio offers.

Organizing your work in projects

An Indigo Studio project will hold your storyboards, screens, screenparts, and assets you may use in them, such as pictures. You can organize the designs in your projects in folders, using the Project Home.

You can save one or multiple designs at a time using the various save options Indigo offers. These options are available:
