Search & Add

Search for icons, and add them to the page

Our Icons Library contains several Icon sets: Material Design, Font Awesome, Bootstrap, Feather, Hawcons, Amazon AWS, Azure Services, Kubernetes, Google Cloud, Cisco, RPG Awesome, and Emoji. And, many of these sets come with a variety of themes.

In this article, you’ll learn how to find the icons you need, and add them to the page as objects. We’ll also show you how to duplicate and rename those icons.

Browse Icon Library

To browse the Icon library, navigate to the Left Sidebar and click on the Icons Tab. The tab will turn blue – and will open the Icons Panel. 

At the top of the panel, use the dropdown to select an icon kit, and the submenu arrow to select a specific theme for that kit.

Once you have selected a kit and a theme, the panel will display various icon categories – so you can drill down on a particular subject or action.

You can quickly expand and collapse all categories within an icon set by using the More actions menu, or by holding down Alt/Option when expanding or collapsing a single category.

Search Icons

All our icons are tagged, making it easy to search, find, compare and choose the right one for your context.

The search input in the Icons Panel functions differently than in the Stencils Panel.

To search for an icon:

1. Type a search term into the input 
2. The search displays results from the selected Icon Kit and Theme
3. To view results from other icon kits, use the dropdown and submenu arrow to switch between kits and themes

The Icon search filters its results by kit and theme because, in most cases, using icons from the same kit adds visual consistency to a project.

Add Icons to the Page

From the Icons Panel, there are two ways to add an icon to your page:

1. Drag and drop an icon to a specific place on the page
2. Click on the icon to have it appear in the top-left corner of the page

Custom Icons

Currently, you can’t upload custom icon sets to the Icons library, however we’re actively developing that functionality.

In the meantime, if you have custom icons in SVG format, there’s a quick and easy work-around by using the Templates Panel as a repository.

To upload and add custom icons:

1. On the left sidebar, click on theTemplates Tab to open the Templates Panel.
2. Click on the Create a new folder button to create a dedicated icon folder.
3. Name your folder to match your specific icon set.
4. Drag and drop selected svg icon files from your desktop to the Templates Library.
5. The library will retain the name of individual icon files so you can search them quickly.
6. Drag your newly added icons to the page to resize and style them.
