Compare assets

Sometimes you may want to compare two assets in order to see differences and find potential for improvements. For this purpose, you can open the compare view for the assets.

The compare view opens in the preview area of the detail view and consists of two preview images side by side, which you can manipulate with either a single or two separate preview controls. The preview controls are the same as in the normal preview.

Functionality notes

CELUM Content lets you freely decide which two assets you want to compare with each other. The compare view will try to accommodate you as best as possible but naturally, some comparisons (e.g. comparing two documents) make more sense than others (e.g. comparing a video and an image). If the binary files of the two assets or versions are too different, some functions in the preview controls may not be available.
