Folders and pins

2 min read, updated Oct 19, 2026

Pins and folders keep the patterns you use all the time one click away.

Pins

Point at any pattern and click the Pin button. Pinned patterns are collected at the top of the panel. Click Pin again to unpin. Pins are personal: each user on the site has their own.

Folders

Folders let you group patterns your own way, for example one folder per client. They are a Pro tool.

Switch on Etchedy → Library settings → Agency tools → Folders.

  1. Add a pattern to a folderPoint at a pattern and click the Add to folder button. A small menu opens.

Deleting a folder never deletes the patterns in it.
