Note about the asset quality inserted. In InDesign it will use the quality configured on the MM5 config manager (Creative cloud connector - Low insert quality). If this is not set or the asset does not have the specified quality, then it will default to the source. For all the other adobe supported products, source will be used.
In asset preview mode you have the option to choose the quality from a list. Click the use button, a window will show with the possible qualities to choose from. The possible values depends of the assettype.
Check in/out
As a user you have the possibility to lock (check out) an asset while while working on it. Preventing others uploading and replacing the asset.
As the image shows below, (1) Shows an green un-lock icon, which means that the asset is not locket. (2) Shows an black lock icon, that is locked (cheecked out), if you hover the lock icon, a tooltip shows who checked out the asset. You can check out the asset by clicking the icon.
If your user has the role "Administrator", then he has the opportunity to force check in the asset, by clicking the locked icon. The force check in dialog will show, if the asset is checked out by another user.
When you activate the menu "Upload active document", and the asset is already checked out by another user, then "Replace existing Asset" is disabled and by hovering the lock icon a tooltip shows who checked out the asset.
