This message could also appear if another user has checked in a modified version of the
asset after you checked it out. Click “Update anyway” to overwrite the local version with the
version on the database, or click “Keep local modifications” to preserve the local version.
Creating a Duplicate Asset When Dragging to a Bin
In some cases you might want to create a duplicate of an Avid asset that you drag from the
Interplay database to a local bin, for example, if you want to create a new version of a sequence
while preserving the original. You can then work on the duplicate without affecting the original.
To automatically create a duplicate asset when dragging to a bin:
t Hold down the Control key (Windows) or Option key (Macintosh) and drag an asset from
the Interplay window to a local bin.
A duplicate copy of the asset is listed in the bin. The name of the duplicate includes the file
name extension .Copy.n, where n is the number of duplicates created from the original asset.
Checking Out the Same Sequence to More than One Bin
Avid editing applications have a long-standing internal rule that a sequence cannot
simultaneously exist in two open bins. If you Alt-drag a sequence from one bin to another, the
sequence is copied and renamed as it is placed in the second bin.
n
It is possible, under some circumstances, to have the same sequence in two bins when one or
both bins are closed. Previously, if you opened one bin and then the other, the sequence was
duplicated without renaming in the second bin. Now the sequence is duplicated and renamed in
the second bin.
