A graphic collection is a set of preprepared graphic objects, which can be used for touch panel layout design using the drag and drop method.

The individual sections of the graphic collection module are described in the [https://cue.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CVCIDE/pages/503218181](https://cue.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CVCIDE/pages/503218181) chapter.

### Replacing a Collection

Because graphical collections are realized through a library of drivers and are written in XPL2 programming language. They are not an internal part of CVC thus their actualization does not depend on the actual version of CVC.

Collections have file extension *.cvcg (which stands for cue visual composer graphic) and they reside in predefined subfolder..\Cue Visual Composer\Collections or ..\Cue Visual Composer\User Collections.

After inserting a graphical collection into a particular project, this graphical collection is embedded into this project. And from that moment CVC works with this embedded graphical collection only.
