Note on the tree menus

The tree structure is collapsed by default when entering the edit mode on a metadata field that contains it. When the user searches for a specific value within the menu, using the search box, the menu remains collapsed until there are less than 20 values left. Once that number is reached, the menu expands automatically to display the remaining values.

Quick asset info

The "i" button located on the asset card or ‘Asset info’ button in the ‘More’ menu (dependent on the asset card configuration) gives quick access to selected asset’s information. Once the user clicks the button, the information is displayed in a small dialog. The dialog can be closed again either by clicking the same button again or by clicking empty space anywhere in Media Manager.
