Create Collection Option in “Add to Collection” Modal

Increasing Access

Users can manage their saved sketches and organize them using Collections.
Each sketch provides actions such as:

• Download
• Rename
• Add to Collection

Current Behavior

When a user clicks “Add to collection” on a sketch:

• If no collections exist in their account
• The modal displays a message: No collections
• There is no action available to create a collection directly from this modal

This results in a dead-end UX where the user must:

1. Close the modal
2. Navigate elsewhere
3. Manually create a collection
4. Return to the sketch and retry the action

Problem

• The modal presents an empty state without any affordance
• Breaks user flow and increases friction
• Especially confusing for new users who don’t yet know where collections are created

Suggested Improvement

• Add a “Create Collection” button directly in the modal when no collections exist
• Provide inline guidance or a quick form to create a new collection without leaving the current flow
• Ensure the newly created collection is immediately selectable for the sketch

Benefits

• Smooth, intuitive user experience
• Eliminates unnecessary navigation steps
• Reduces confusion for first-time users
• Encourages adoption of Collections feature

Feature enhancement details

Start by locating the “Add to Collection” modal and its no-collections empty state in the editor. Review how collections are currently created elsewhere and how a sketch is added to one. Done means users can create a collection from the empty modal and immediately select it for the current sketch without leaving the flow.
