Understand sorting

00:08

When you have a folder open on the assets tab,

00:11

you'll have the flexibility of sorting your assets

00:13

within your batches by two different parameters:

00:17

name

00:18

or date of upload.

00:20

To change from one sort parameter to another,

00:22

simply click on the existing sort parameter in the upper right hand corner.

00:27

For example, if the assets are currently sorted by name, it will display name.

00:32

Clicking here will change the sorting to uploaded,

00:35

meaning the date of the upload itself.

00:38

Clicking here again will change it back to being sorted by name.

00:42

Next to this, you'll see either an up arrow or a down arrow

00:46

indicating that the assets are sorted in either ascending or descending

00:50

order, based on the parameter to the left of it.

00:54

For example, our assets here are sorted by name in descending order.

00:59

Clicking the arrow will change this to have our assets sorted by name,

01:03

in ascending order.

01:06

Note that the sort options in the upper right hand

01:09

corner are for sorting the assets within the batches themselves.

01:14

If you'd like to change the sorting options for the batches themselves,

01:18

in the upper left corner, you'll also see either an up arrow or a down arrow.

01:24

This will put the batches in either ascending or descending order, alphabetically.

01:31

Note that regardless of your sorting options for the batches,

01:34

your sub folders will always appear at the top.

01:38

You can also re-sort all of your assets into batches based

01:41

on a wide variety of parameters to suit your current needs.

01:45

This is covered more in depth in our batches tutorial,

01:49

but essentially batches offer you flexibility to reorganize all

01:53

assets within the folder based off of various metadata fields

01:57

such as scene,

01:58

episode,

01:60

camera,

02:01

and more.
