Hi Greg, I'm finding your tutorials absolutely great! I'm a newbie to Canva, designing cards, calendars, planners etc. to sell on my website. In addition to creating content from Canva, I'll also be using images of my colour pencil art. Thanks so much for presenting things in such a clear and uncluttered way. 😊 Sandi, Cape Town
Thanks, I'm glad you found this helpful and happy to hear you've been enjoying the course. If you run into any Canva related questions just let me know! cheers, Greg
This was awesome thank you. Question, I’m part of a team and I create all of the graphics. When I create a folder and share the folder will the members see the folder the same way and can they add to it too.
Thank you for this interesting and useful video lesson. Especially I liked part of 19:30 - where you explained how to use the grid feature. Firstly I didn't understand but after some time I figured out how to use it... You gave me nice ideas 😃 P.S. For some reason not all texture I could expand on the grid... but in general, it works.
Thank you for sharing this very useful information in such a clear and concise way. Just clicked the like, subscribe buttons, and commented. Now I am going to your channel page to start binge watching on all the topics I am having questions about. Really appreciate it in small manageable chunks. :) Francine
another amazing tutorial, it seems Style brush functions the same way as Word's format brush, applying the format on target the same way. I wonder if the format here implies the same(font, size and others).
Really really fine information. info on folders and folders that I could never find and now I can because of you and all other fabulous tips and organizing that I have never found anywhere else. Thank you so much for that
Thanks so much, one question, when moving images, and say you have a lot, they don't move away, I know it is now moved, but its still showing, and when you have a lot to sort through you wont know what images has been moved to a folder, thats for uploaded images or the Ai generated images? Cause sy you don't have that much time to move them all right now, and the next day, you won't know where you have stopped. Oh, and if you delete images, will your designs with that image, will that design loose that image? Hope this makes sense 😂
Hmmm, when I move items to folders they seem to disappear from the old location and show in the new folder. Perhaps, I'm not totally understanding what you're experiencing. If you can provide more specifics then I'll help if I can. When you add an image to a design, I'm pretty sure it becomes and embedded part of that design and you wouldn't loose it from that design if you deleted the image from the root folder, but I'll have to test this to confirm for sure. cheers, Greg
Thanks for this video. The thing I don't like is after moving everything to folders, Canva still shows the same images, videos, etc. outside of the folders which looks very cluttered.
You're welcome. Yes, I think Canva can still improve their UI, but I think what's probably most important for users is is to set up and utilize a folder/organization structure that makes sense for their workflow and then if they really stick to that they will have all their design assets at their fingertips from within a Canva design project and they can end up saving a lot of time. cheers, Greg
Good question. I think this is something Canva could definitely improve, but making more filter options under the Projects tab. But right now, if you go to the Projects tab from the Canva Home screen then you'll see a list of all your Canva assets. When viewing your list of assets, anything that's in a folder will show the name of the folder. It's not super "in your face obvious", but it's there. If you're in viewing things in "grid view" then the folder name shows below the image on the bottom right. In list view, the folder names shows in the Name column, below the name of the items. This is for desktop at least and in both case, grid view and list view view, the folder name shows with gray background behind it. Hope this helps. And hopefully, they improve this in the future...it would be nice to just be able to easier filter to a view of all your items that were in your Canva root directory and not in a subfolder. cheers, Greg
You're welcome! For the font pairings I just googled something like "great font pairings" and then I looked into some of the result pages and found font pairings I liked which used fonts I could find in Canva. I then built on my Canva file, create a page with a simple/clean layout that utilized a headline, subheading, and a paragraph of body text. I used the name of the font I was using as my heading/subheading so it would make it a super easy visual reference. I also started the body text with the name of the font I was using for that and then added another paragraph of dummy text (just search for "lorem ipsum generator") just so visually I'd get the full picture. Once I had one set of font pairing complete, I just duplicate the page anytime I have a new set of font combinations that I enjoy so this file just makes a really easy reference anytime I'm working on a new project and I'm thinking on what fonts I might want to use. Hope this helps! cheers, Greg

Nicely explained ❤
Hey thanks, glad it was helpful! cheers, Greg
I’m off to make beaucoup folders😉
Yes, getting organized in Canva can definitely end up saving you time! : ) cheers, Greg

I may have missed this, is there a way to view all your designs that aren't in folders? (so that you can then put them in a folder haha) Thanks!

Great explanation
Where did you get the font pairing pictures? Those are great!
I just organized some of my mess inside Canva!!! 6 months of craziness in there!!! Thank you.
