Chapter 5 Organizing with Bins
128
In the example, “Copy ‘Start’ column to:” appears at the top of the
dialog box because the user selected the Start column for duplication.
3. Select a column name from the list.
The column must contain the same type of data for the copy to occur.
For example, you can copy start timecodes to the Auxiliary TC
column, but you cannot copy timecodes to the Pullin column.
4. Click OK.
The column of information appears in the column you designated.
When you duplicate a timecode column (Start, TC 24, TC 25, TC 25P, or
TC 30), the values for master clips and subclips are converted to the
appropriate timecode. For more information, see “Displaying Timecodes
in a 23p, 24p or 25p Project” on page 138.
Adding Customized Columns to a Bin
In addition to the standard statistical or film column headings, you can add
your own column headings to describe information about clips. For
example, you might want to add a column heading to describe what kind of
shot (close-up, wide shot, master shot, extreme close-up, and so on) is used
in a clip.
To add a new custom column:
1. Click an empty area to the right of the current headings in the headings
box.
2. Move any existing column to the right or left in order to create an
empty area.
3. Type the column heading you want, and press Enter (Windows) or
Return (Macintosh). Column headings must contain fewer than 14
characters, including spaces.
This places the pointer in the data box, beside the first clip in the bin.
4. Select Bin > Align to Grid after you have entered the new column
heading.
5. Type the information, and press Enter (Windows) or Return
(Macintosh) to move to the next line.
