There are use cases where we need to have multiple proofs open at the same time. In the browser, this is not an issue at all, but now that we are doing Interactive proofs, this is becoming an issue.


Use cases:

  • User has two monitors and would like to compare versions that way then really tall and thin in one monitor
  • User is looking at a proof that is similar but not related to the current proof about some global settings for the brand and what was done
  • There is an issue with the integration and a proof is create independent of the other versions so both need to be open to compare.
  • They are waiting on a comment from someone else and while waiting they are working on something else. They don't want to lose the proof though so they don't forget about it.


I'm sure there are more, but that is all I could think about.

We are experiencing the same need with interactive proof. We may have several edit requests to the same page that we need to review simultaneously, or just to compare a couple similar requests or pages. This was easy with in-browser proofing, but we are about to roll out interactive proof as the primary proofing option to our entire marketing department. Thanks!

We have a use case for our Brand Team, that is primarily focused on doing multiple Brand Reviews for all of our external agencies and some internal teams that need their creative reviewed to ensure it is meeting our new Brand standard guidelines. This review is offered twice a week for one hour.

We have had over 60 outside agencies gain access to Workfront so far to take advantage of this review process with great feedback on this new process. We have identified a problem however, with only be able to open one proof at a time when there may be 5- 6 proofs to review within an hour. So the time it takes for the proof to open and the spinning blue circle is not a great experience or use of time for our creative executives and the agencies during this one hour time slot. We cannot combine all the proofs into one, because they are coming from different agencies and we need to keep them separated. We are combining multiple proofs within an agency submission.
