Making a gallery public or private

Making a gallery public or private

When many people have access to a single catalog, it can be beneficial to create galleries to which individual users have access.

When you create a gallery, you can choose to make it public or private. You can choose to make a public gallery Read-Only so that other catalog members can view but not change your gallery.

To change the privacy settings of a gallery:

  1. In the Organizers panel, double-click the name of the gallery.

  2. Select privacy settings for the gallery:

    • Public galleries are available to all members of the catalog.

    • Private galleries are only available to you.

    • The Read-Only option restricts the ability for other users to change your public gallery. You are still able to modify the contents of the gallery.

  3. Click Save.
