Editing Pages

Learn how to edit a Page in CompanyCam, including the editor toolbar, photo details, photo layout, cover pages, and deleting a Page.

Once a Page exists, you can shape it to fit the job. This article covers the editor toolbar, how to control which photo details show, how to lay photos out, how to add a cover page, and how to delete a Page you no longer need.


On the web

Using the editor toolbar

The editing tools sit at the top of the screen. From left to right: Header Size, Bold, Italic, Underline, Color, Checkbox, Bulleted List, Numbered List, Text Snippets, Insert Link, Add Photos, Add Table, Insert Cover Page, Undo, and Redo.


Including photo details

  1. Open a Page, click the 3 Dots Icon at the top right, and click Page Settings.

  2. Use the Settings Toggles to choose which details show, such as Capture Details, Photo Tags, Photo Location, and Photo Numbers.

Your choices apply to every photo on the Page.

Note: Photo details may look different depending on whether your photos are in List or Grid layout.

FAQs

Can I add a cover page after the Page is built?

Cover pages can be added at any time from the top of an existing Page.

Why do my photo details look different from someone else's?

Photo details format differently in List layout versus Grid layout. Switch layouts from the Layout Icon if the look isn't what you expected.

Can I get a photo's description onto the Page automatically?

Photo descriptions carry over when you turn on Show Photo Text (web) or Photo Text (app).
