Some logo versions look great against a dark background, while others need a light one. When you're sharing both with a client, a single background won't suit every file.
We've added workspace defaults and individual file overrides for preview backgrounds in Sydnee's Files module. You can choose how your images first appear, so clients don't have to change the background to see them as you intended.
In this video, I use our own logo files to show the difference.
Set a starting point for your workspace
Owners and admins can choose a Light, Neutral, or Dark preview background for Files. That default applies to gallery thumbnails and file previews across your workspace's client accounts and portals.
In the walkthrough, I choose a dark background because it works well for most of the logos in our demo folder. That gives the collection a consistent starting view.
Give individual files the background they need
A few of those logos need a light background instead. Each file can have its own saved background, so I can change those without changing the rest of the collection.
Your workspace default handles most of the files, and the individual settings take care of the exceptions. It's useful when you're sharing different versions of a logo or a mix of design assets that need different backgrounds.
Keep the starting view you intended
Clients can still switch backgrounds while they're browsing. When they return, your saved choices provide the starting view again.
For setup, see the Docs on workspace file display defaults and individual file settings.
Thanks for the feedback that led to this update. If there's a detail in your client work you'd like us to improve, keep sending it through Support.
