Asset Alternate Styles
From unroole CMS wiki
For more information, see Assets.
To make things easier images and PDF assets support alternative styles. These styles can be used in most places just like the original file. Sometimes these styles will be stored in a different format to allow admins to leverage the alternative style of their asset in unique ways. For example PDF files will be stored in the JPG format to allow them to be displayed on pages or in galleries. By default the system styles are:
- original
- thumbnail
- icon
For custom installations these styles can be expanded upon and managed during inital setup.
Not all of the asset types however support this feature. (ex: 'Document') In this case the system is smart enough to know when to display the alternative version and when to hide them.
