Find clipart and other images with the CONNECT Content docker

The CONNECT Content docker (Window Dockers CONNECT Content) provides a central location where you can search and browse vector and bitmap images in local or network folders and on portable devices. After you find the image you need, you can add it to your project. For more information, see Use and manage images with the CONNECT Content docker.

To get you started, Corel provides local content that is stored in your Documents\Corel\Corel Content\Images folder. If you are looking to expand your image collection, you can download additional image packs from within the Get More dialog box.

To access images that are saved to local folders outside your Documents\Corel\Corel Content\Images folder, you can create links, known as aliases, to these folders. In addition, aliases can be used to access images saved to shared network locations as well as secondary storage devices such as USB flash drives, and portable hard drives.

You can search by the file name, title, or tags associated with images. For example, if you type "tree" in the text field, the application automatically filters out all files that do not match, and you see only the files that have the word "tree" in the file name, title, or tags.

You can narrow the search results by choosing the content source (for example, a specific folder location) and category (for example, Nature). You can also view the list of your favorite or most recently used images, and you can sort images by the name and the date they were created or modified.

By default, you can browse and search the entire All content library, stored in your Documents\Corel\Corel Content\Images folder. You can also search and browse one folder or list at a time.

After you copy a folder that contains images to your computer, it may take some time for your operating system to index the folder. To view, browse, and search content in such a folder right away, you may need to reindex the folder.

You can increase the size of thumbnails, and you can decrease thumbnail size to view more search results at a glance.
