Asset pane thumbnail views

Curator version supported from this article: 3.0


The Asset Pane displays your asset thumbnails and shows the results of your asset library searches, filters, and folder navigation. You can adjust how results are displayed to suit your workflow.

If an asset has an alpha channel, the thumbnail background will appear as a checkered pattern. Supported formats include .mogrt, .png, and .tiff.
