If the asset has any edited versions, they will also show up. An edited version of an asset is an asset that is created from another asset. In the example above there are four edited versions and each version is a cropped version of the original asset. They exist as separate assets, but the system knows that they are spawned from the original asset.

It is possible to select one of the edited versions and press insert, and that asset that will be inserted into the content item.

Sometimes edited versions are also called Derived assets or Sub-asset because they descent from another asset.
