Uploading and adding files
Files and images can be added to your template by dragging them into the treeview or the main editing pane. They can also be added directly into folders by hovering over the desired folder to open it and dropping the file inside.

Files can also be uploaded, or created, by clicking the + button at the top of the treeview.
Folders added in this way will be added at the topmost level and not into another folder.

To add a file or folder to a specific folder, right-click on the destination folder and add them from the menu.
