Similar to Tags, Collections allow you to organize asset selections for faster access. Unlike Tags, however, when you create a Collection, it is only visible to you and is not shared across the team. Collections are a convenient way to, for example, make temporary asset selections for a project, gather some favourite assets, or just quickly group assets for later use.
Creating collections
To create a new collection, go to the Collections tab in the Productivity panel and click the"+" button. Then give the new collection a name and press Enter:
Creating new collection.
Adding and removing assets to collections
To add assets to a collection, select one or multiple assets and use a drag & drop interaction:

To remove assets from a collection, select the assets and choose the"Remove from Collection" command in the contextual menu:

You can select multiple collections to browse all assets they contain. Use the standard Control + left mouse click to add and remove collections from the selection:

Collection groups
When the number of collections gets larger, and the list becomes harder to navigate, use Groups to organize related collections.
