Editorial Galleries

How to access and use the Images tab within the Project View of the Editorial Module.

Written by Viviana

Editorial Galleries in Creative Force transform how teams organize and curate large volumes of assets, offering an intuitive folder-based structure that makes image management effortless. This feature improves asset organization, enhances the selection process, and allows studios to share assets for external review.


Getting Started

To access Editorial Galleries, head into the detail screen of an Editorial Project, then select the Images tab along the top menu:

Gallery Subtabs

The Image tab will be subdivided into various gallery types on the left-hand menu, allowing you to access targeted types of assets by navigating between them.

Contact Sheets

One helpful action available in the gallery view allows you to generate a contact sheet to print or send to other stakeholders. First, select all of the images you would like included on the contact sheet. Then select the 'Actions' button, and hit 'Contact Sheet.'

From here, you’ll be taken to a preview of the contact sheet where you have the option to make some adjustments to fit specific needs and preferences. Click the switches icon on the top toolbar to adjust: size of thumbnails, asset wrapping, sort order, and what information is displayed.

Once the contact sheet is formatted to your liking, all that is left to do is print. Click the blue 'Print’ button to open up your device's print dialogue, send it to print, or 'Save' it to your device as a PDF.
