The Assets tab can contain up to 15 columns. For information on choosing which columns
appear, see Managing Columns in the Assets Tab.
The Assets tab also has three buttons you can use to manage the assets.
• Import: Opens the Import Assets dialog so you can choose assets to import. See Using
the Import Asset Feature for more information.
• New Folder: Creates a new folder in the assets list. If you have an existing folder selected,
the new folder becomes its subfolder. See Creating Asset Folders for more information.
• Remove: Removes the selected asset or assets, including folders, from the assets list. A
message appears if you try to remove assets that are currently in use by the project.
This does not affect the asset’s actual file—it just controls whether it appears in this
list. See Removing Selected Assets for more information.
Default Columns in the Assets Tab
The following columns appear by default in the Assets tab. You can remove these, change
their order, and add additional columns as needed. See Managing Columns in the Assets
Tab for more information.
• Name: Applies to all asset types. Displays the asset’s name and an icon that represents
the asset type. By default the asset name is the same as the asset filename, but you
can rename the asset to make it easier to identify within your project. See Renaming
Assets for more information.
