View an item

When you add an item from Destiny Discover®, the internet, Google Drive™, or Microsoft® OneDrive, it automatically appears in your collection. For each item, its title, type, description, tags, and URL (if the item is a weblink) are also auto-populated.

There are three ways to view an item:

• Scattered view
• Grid view
• List view

Notes: Scattered view is the default view for all items in a collection. Logged-in users will see items in scattered view, grid view, or list view for every collection until they change views.

To see items in the scattered view:

At the top-right corner, click .

Notes: When an item is marked "For Instructor Use Only", the icon appears in the item's header. Only users with instructor roles can see this icon. For private collections, the "Drag and Drop" icon also appears in the item's header.

To see items in the grid view:

At the top-right corner, click > Grid View.
