Notes on Downloading

If the files are located in the cloud there will be a delay as the file is downloaded from the cloud to your local machine.

Reveal in Finder/Explorer

Once you have successfully downloaded a file, or it's available through the panel integration with our iconik storage gateway you can reveal the file in Finder on MacOS and Explorer on Windows.

This can be done in the follow places:

  • Search - as a menu option
  • Asset View - as a menu option in the main gearbox
  • Project Item - In the project view, under project items in the item menu.
