Transformations with Single File Selection

Bynder compact view supports defining transformations (image size, fill, mirroring, ...) while selecting the media item. To be able to use that feature, a few configuration steps must be completed.

Configure the Bynder browser

First we need to configure the Browser, so that it uses the single file compact view variant.

To edit Bynder entity browser, go to Configuration > Content authoring > Entity browser

Webdam AddEntityReference

Choose the Entity Browser to modify and click Edit.

Bynder BrowserEdit

Go to Widget Settings

Bynder BrowserWidget

Check the `Use single file selection mode` checkbox.

Single file selection

Save your modifications.

Bynder BrowserSave

Display configuration

Now we need to configure the display for the Bynder media type.

Edit the Bynder Media Entity.

Bynder MediaManageDisplay

Select the option "Bynder (Image)" in the Bynder ID dropdown menu.

Click on the gear icon to access the parameters.

Bynder DisplaySettings

Then I check the checkbox ` Use user-selected asset transformations if available` and press `Update`

Bynder_UserSelectedAssetsTranformations

Press `Save` at the bottom of the page.

Bynder DisplaySettingsSave

You will now be able to use tranformation in the Asset browser

Caveats

This gives editors (or other roles that can use Bynder) full control over the image presentation. This means that images might spill out of page boundaries or not fall into other guidelines.

The ability to opt-in to this feature per view mode allows to limit it to certain sections of a page, for example allow control over full images in content but not teaser images.
