File types

File types is a way to categorize images and files. When displaying images and files in the presentation layer, these can be used to position images and files in different places. For example, the Main Image might be the first image displayed on a product page, whereas detail images can be found in an image carousel. File types can be found at Products > Settings > File Types.

Moving, Sorting and Deleting

To move an image or file to another File Type within the same product or variant, simply drag and drop it to the type where you want it. The same technique can be used when sorting images to make them appear in the desired order.
