Modifying Data Directly
When you modify information in a bin directly, you click a cell and
type the new information. For example, you can type a new name for a
clip, or correct the start and end timecodes.
You can directly modify any data in the bin while logging and prior to
digitizing. After the footage is digitized, however, you can directly
modify information only in selected headings, with restrictions, as
shown in Table 5-4.
n
For more information on these headings, see “Bin Column Headings” on
page 160.
