Written by Kalila Richards

When you open an artwork's image full size, you can move through all of its pictures without closing the viewer. You'll see the main image first, then the alt views, then the associated views.

Open the image viewer

  1. Go to Inventory and open an artwork.

  2. On the Info tab, click the main image. To start from a different picture, click one of the small pictures under the main image.

Move between images

  1. Click the arrow on the right side of the screen to see the next image. Click the arrow on the left to go back.

  2. You can also press the right and left arrow keys on your keyboard.

  3. Press Esc when you're done.

When you reach the first or last image, the arrow on that side fades out.
