If configured to do so, Digital Asset Manager creates thumbnails for new files when they are first created or imported into the repository. (New thumbnails may take some time to appear.) If a low-resolution thumbnail cannot be generated, the thumbnail appears as a representation of the file type, using the standard file format icon.
If no thumbnail can be delivered to or loaded in the browser, Digital Asset Manager displays an icon to represent the broken thumbnail. The icon used to signal a broken thumbnail can be configured, but appears as a generic broken document icon (
) by default.
To override the default thumbnail for a file with a storyboard, see Overriding a document thumbnail from Active Preview.
To override a default thumbnail:
Select a file and select View > Properties > Info.
Scroll down to the Thumbnail property.
Click Replace.
Select an alternate thumbnail rendition or import a new file to be used as the default rendition.
Click OK to save your changes.
The file’s thumbnail refreshes.
