Abstract
Techniques for sharing design elements between different applications and/or devices are provided. A design element is received from a first application as multiple representations, each of the multiple representations corresponding to a complementary storage format for the design element based on a design element type. The design element is stored as the multiple representations in a centrally stored library, the centrally stored library being shared among a plurality of applications. An indication to use the design element in a second application may be received. At least one of the multiple representations may be returned, as determined by the second application.
