This video tuto. This is a great way to reduce your project's file size. Icons from the amazing Font Awesome icon set are pre-installed. It contains over icons in a wide range of categories that can be sized from very small to very large. It is also updated frequently and we plan to keep up with the updates whenever we release a new version of our product. Icons have their own category in the UI Library so you can drag and drop them just like any other control.
Not only that, they also show up in the Quick Add results, saving you time when searching by name or keyword. Some controls allow you to add icons to them buttons, for example. You can do this from the Property Inspector in one of two ways: the icon search and the icon library dialog.
If the control you selected support icons, you will see the icon search box in the Property Inspector. This works much like the Quick Add tool , just type a few letters from the name of the icon you are looking for and a list of suggestions will pop up as a grid of icons to choose from. Just click on the one you want to select it. You can also rotate icons in 90 degree increments using the button next to the search box.
If you'd like to explore all the icons that are available, click on the icon to the right of the icon search box. This will bring up the icon library dialog, where you can browse the icons by category and preview them at different sizes. You can double-click an icon to select it immediately or click once to select and then click the "Select" button to add it.
Once you have selected an icon, you can resize it, rotate it or remove it via the Property Inspector. You can also easily add your own icons for use in your wireframes by selecting any of your imported images, and using them as an icon. They will automatically show up in the icon library, under the Assets category at the bottom.
The editor recognizes color and transparency, but icons you add may not turn out looking as you want them to if they're not prepared the way we expect. Below are some tips to get the most out of your custom icons. The example below shows regular icons in the left column, a custom icon properly prepared with black fills in the middle column, and a custom icon that doesn't work as well in the right column. You can add images in the Assets view by dragging and dropping from your computer or by using the icons in the toolbar.
The "Import Asset Once you've added images, you can view them as thumbnails or a list, as well as in Thumbnail Grid view. The Property Inspector on the right shows you the pixel dimensions of the selected image and allows you to enter notes about it. The lower portion of the panel shows which wireframes if any the image is used in. This can be used for managing images to see if you can delete any that aren't being used, for example. Clicking on a wireframe name will take you to that wireframe in the wireframes view.
Images can be split horizontally using the Split Image button in the Property Inspector. When you press the Split Image button, a horizontal bar will appear on the image, which you can drag to where you want the split point to be. Once you have placed the bar where you'd like it, clicking Split Image on the floating toolbar will split the image at the bar's location.

Balsamiq Cloud accounts are free. You can sign up for an account here. You can also store other types of files in your project that won't be used in your wireframes, such as requirements documents, Photoshop or Illustrator files, PDFs, or any other file that's associated with the project.
We call these "non-image assets" and they can be added to your project by dragging them into the Assets view, just like images. Common file types zip, pdf, doc, etc. The wireframes will be in the same order as in the project, so arrange them in the order you'd like before exporting. You can choose to export all wireframes or a subset, including any alternates you have created. Exporting all wireframes will also generate images for any alternates you have created.
