These properties are sometimes referred to as system metadata. However, it is only part of the
metadata included in an Interplay database. For a description of available properties, see
“System Metadata Properties” on page 280
.
For Interplay Access, administrators select which properties are displayed by default in the
Content tab and Object Inspector Property tabs. Users can then add other available properties to
these tabs. They can also use available properties in an extended search. For the other client
applications, the default properties are preset, and users can add other available properties as
columns in the Research panel.
By default, a set of properties categorized as Broadcast is selected and displayed. You can
customize this set or you can display an alternative set of properties, either Post or Film, and then
customize this set.
The following illustration is an example of properties displayed in the Properties tab of the
Interplay Access Object Inspector.
The administrator can also use the Property Layout view to do the following:
Create custom columns. See
“Creating Custom Properties” on page 150.
Control the resolutions that are available for display. See
“Setting the Resolutions Available
for Display” on page 148
To set the properties displayed in Interplay Access:
1. In the Site Settings section of the Interplay Administrator window, click the Property Layout
icon.
The Property Layout view opens.
