Things to be aware of
Dependent on the application and the asset type, the asset is either opened or directly placed in a predetermined location on the canvas:
In the case of InDesign, once the user has chosen quality, the thumbnail of the image will become attached to the mouse pointer, until the user clicks on the spot on the page, where it should be placed. The user can also pre-select the spot, in which the image should be placed (for example, a frame). If the goal is to replace another image already existing on the page, the user needs to click on it, and then click Place or choose a specific quality to insert with.
In the case of Photoshop, Illustrator, After Effects, or Premiere Pro, the procedure is simpler and the user can simply click Place on an asset out of the Adobe CC Connector and the asset will be placed on the canvas.
Once the asset is placed on the page/canvas, the user can continue working with it like with assets from any other source.
Single insert
(NEW VIDEO NEEDED)
An asset can be inserted in two ways:
Insert asset with place button
Insert asset with specific quality
Insert asset with place button
The place button will insert with 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
Open asset (document) with open button
The open button will open the document in a new tab
When opening a document, the system checks all the links in the opened document against the DAM. If the asset has been replaced in the DAM or the assets are missing on the user's local storage, the system will show a notice with a prompt
Insert asset with specific quality
To insert an asset with a specific quality, click the "More Options" button and hover over the "Insert Asset" button.
If there is only one quality available for the asset, then the "Insert Asset" button will not be displayed in the "More Options" menu.
Multi insert
To insert multiple assets at the same time, select the assets to be inserted and click the "Multi-Insert" button
After clicking the "Multi-Insert" button, a dialog box will be displayed to select the specific quality to insert for all the selected assets.
The list of qualities is based on the available qualities that can be inserted for all the selected assets
Depending on the asset types of the selected assets, e.g. Image and Video, the user will have to select the quality to insert for each asset type separately.
