Why?
DAT is a powerful tool you can add onto your Bynder package, allowing you to create asset derivatives in your asset bank quickly and easily.
How?
-
Navigate to the Asset Bank.
-
Select the asset you want to create a DAT derivative for.
-
Click Transformations in the Info tab of the Asset Detail View. This will open a screen to configure the DAT transformations.
-
Either click the DAT preset you want to apply in the right sidebar, where a preview of what the DAT derivative will look like will be generated, or we can create a derivative from scratch.
-
To create a derivative from scratch click the
button, and select Transform.
-
Click the ➕ Add transformation button.
-
Open the Transformations dropdown and select one of the available transformations.
-
Choose the parameters for the fields, sliders, and options to configure the transformation.
- If you’d like to update the focus point click the dropdown and select Override focus point.
- You can select a new focus point by editing the percentages or directly clicking on the asset with the real-time editor. This focus point will only be applied to the transformed asset; it won’t change the preset DAM focus point.
