View types

Web UI offers different representations of the asset lists. They fulfil different purposes as explained in the table below.

The last three view types enable you to visualize relations between assets. How to work with them, is explained in more detail here.

View type	Use case	Special features
List view	Select the List view to see more details about each asset in an asset list. For example, the asset type and modification date. Because more information is shown for each asset, fewer assets fit into the asset list area.
Gallery view	Select the Gallery view to get a quick overview of as many assets as possible in a single view. In this view, censhare displays only the preview image or icon of each asset.	The preview size can be adjusted with a slider.
Card view	Select the Card view to display a larger preview image for each asset with some details.
Detail view	Select the Detail view to compare the previews of two assets. Use the zoom function to compare the asset details.	Two selected assets can be compared. Learn more. Click the desired asset on the left in the asset list. It will be shown in the large preview. Click the "Compare OFF" button in the title bar. The view will be divided into two boxes that both initially show the preview image for the first asset. Click the asset in the list that you want to compare with the first asset. It is shown in the right box. You can now compare the left preview image with the one on the right. To move the right preview image to the left and make it the object of comparison click the arrow in the upper right of the title bar of the "Selection" box. The column width for both preview images can be adjusted by clicking between both images and dragging the cursor left or right. To end the comparison, click "Compare ON". The large preview shows the asset you last selected.
Column view	Select the Column view to explore the environment of an asset. Based on the type of asset that is selected, this view shows the related assets in separate columns.	See next section
Relation view	Select the Relation view to see a graphical display of the relations between assets. Assets with the same relation are bundled together.	See next section
Table view	Select the Table view to display the search results in a hierarchical table with additional asset details. Use this view to access individual assets in the asset list and the related assets directly.	The list can be sorted using the Sort By field in the title bar.
