Using the Assets Library

Image assets are managed in the Asset Library to help manage all the image assets that might be used when creating a SAM. 

Clicking the Upload button allows for images to be dragged and dropped, or use the navigation window to add one or more images to the library. Supported formats for uploading are:

• .jpg, .jpeg
• .png (transparency is supported)
• GIF
• Animated GIF
  • animated GIFs are supported in the Image Block. Currently, animated GIFs housed in the Asset Library do no animated when used as the thumbnail in the preview overly but do work if it is linked from an external source.

It is recommended that images used in SAMs should be smaller than 1MB each and no more than 2,000 pixels in size to optimize the display time to deliver the assets when a SAM is opened. When an upload exceeds these recommendations, there will be a small warning label in the upper right of the image. Clicking the warning icon will indicate the recommendation that was exceeded:

Recommendations for images and other assets can be seen here.

Image Organization

Within the Image Library, SAMs can be further organized within folders and folders within folders. Images can be directly uploaded to one of the folders created for organizational purposes. 

Clicking the blue folder icon with the + will create a new folder. Clicking the three buttons icon on each same (or all selected SAMs) allows them to be moved to any of the created folders. A folder can be created within a folder for further organization. 

A folder can be renamed or deleted by clicking the three dots in the folder icon:

And selecting Rename or Delete. A folder containing items cannot be deleted. Move the items out beforehand if that folder needs to be deleted:
