Real Things: Get Your Assets
Now that you have searched your catalog and found certain assets, and have additionally examined them in fullscreen preview – now you know which of your assets you need for your further work. But how can you get to them? Well, that's another thing that’s made very easy by Cumulus: just drag the appropriate records from the Collection window to any folder or directory within your file system, and the corresponding assets will be copied to that place.
Instead of a record, you may also drag a category to any place you want, and a folder is created with the same name as the category containing all assets assigned to that category. It is as simple as that.
Furthermore, you may select one or more assets and select Show Location from the Asset menu. The folder(s) containing the selected asset(s) will be opened in new Explorer / Finder windows. The respective file(s) are highlighted.
Last, but not least you may even drag the assets directly to the application where you want to use them, if the target application supports drag & drop.
