# Insert

Search and insert Symbols in your Document or in Symbol Libraries. You can limit the search results on a Document level by selecting the ones you need.

### Replace Selected Layer

You can replace a selected Layer in your document by searching another Symbol and holding `option` / `alt` when hitting `return`.

### Search in Libraries

To filter a certain set of Symbols, type `/` and select a Library or choose `Document Only`. When a filter is applied, you can undo the filter by clicking the `×` icon, or hitting the `delete` key.

### Show Preview Window at the Bottom

For those with Libraries with long Symbol names, the bottom preview setting should come in handy.
