Description

Nature of issue?
  • Existing feature enhancement
Feature enhancement details:

Apologies if this is a duplicate. I did a cursory look.

Can sort-by-size and multi-select functionality be added to the asset editor? I end up duplicating a lot of student sketches and running out of asset space quickly. I make my best effort to clear up asset space but I find it too arduous and instead make new accounts often but I think that is suboptimal for everyone involved.

Alternatively, I would be willing to pay a small annual fee for much larger storage space 😉

Research direction

Start with the asset editor entry point and trace how assets are displayed, selected, and ordered. Define completion as allowing users to sort assets by size and select multiple assets for cleanup, then verify both interactions in the editor.
