Back to News News Archives Marc's Personal Blog RSS Expanded Quick Fields on the Metadata Panel May 21, 2007 I've expanded the number of Quick Fields to 8, made the first 3 of them multiline and wrapping, and kept the last 5 single-line (but scrollable). Note that the width of all of them widens as the window is widened. (The Windows Metadata Panel doesn't resize in Version 2.2, but it will in Version 2.3.) The drop-downs for the last 10 items in each Quick Field are gone. I didn't think they were useful enough to keep, and implementing them would have been a little complicated. As usual, you choose the labels and the use of all 8 fields. You're not at all bound by the way I've decided to use the 8 in this example. Remember that any data that's fairly constant from ingestion-to-ingestion can go in the Metadata Preset instead. The picture shows just the lower part of the Metadata Panel. The upper part still has the outline view of Catalog Sets and keywords. This new panel will be in Beta 6 for the Mac, which I'll have ready in a few days. News Archives
