Swapping Out Illustrations

You can swap out one illustration for another without losing existing formatting, animations, or triggers. Below, we describe three ways to do so.

Right-Click the Illustration

1. Right-click any image in your course, scroll to Replace Picture, and choose Content Library 360 Photos.
2. The Content Library 360 browser remembers your last search during the current session, so you may need to use the drop-down list in the upper right corner to switch to Illustrations.
3. Browse for a new illustration and click Insert.

Use the Format Tab on the Ribbon

1. Select any image in your course, go to the Format tab on the ribbon, click the Replace Picture drop-down arrow, and choose Content Library 360 Photos.
2. The Content Library 360 browser remembers your last search during the current session, so you may need to use the drop-down list in the upper right corner to switch to Illustrations.
3. Browse for a new illustration and click Insert.

Use Content Placeholders

If your course is built with content placeholders, you can delete an illustration you previously added to a placeholder and add another one in its place. Here’s how:

1. Click the Insert Content Library 360 Media icon in the placeholder.
2. The Content Library 360 browser remembers your last search during the current session, so you may need to use the drop-down list in the upper right corner to switch to Illustrations.
