Desktop Settings Guide

These settings are available to you to improve your overall experience. This article defines and contextualizes each one.

Access "Desktop Settings" by clicking your profile icon in the top right of your Bild application.

Enable Download Non Local Files Button

This setting enables the download button in the top right of your screen. Clicking this button will download all non-local files in the current workspace to your local directory.
