💡 FAQ

Can I upload contents to both top-level Folders and Folders?

Absolutely, both the top-level folders and folders can contain a variety of content, including documents, images, videos, 3D objects or Smart Tools.

What is the difference between top-level folders and regular folders?

Top-level folders allow you to categorize and organize your content effectively. When you click the 'Files' or 'Home' tabs in the side menu, these top-level folders are the first ones you see. They play a key role in dividing and managing your content. These folders can also be provided with a wallpaper image that will be applied to all the sub-folders within it. 

(Regular) folders are any folders or sub-folders that you create underneath the main top-level folder. These folders help to further divide and organize your content, and they can also be customized with thumbnails for easy identification.
