In the Professional Edition you can customise which fields are shown in the clip details panel using the Customise Details Panel command. You can:Create additional tab panels, either copies of existing ones or entirely new.Choose which fields are included on each panel.Choose whether long fields span both columns and whether fields are hidden if they are blank.If you want a large, multi-line field to expand and fill the available space (eg. for the Notes or Event Markers field) add it as the last field on that tab.Turn the predefined "HTML Summary" and "Other" tabs on or off.Create your own HTML-basd tabs by defing a tab with the fields you want in it and checking the HTML option.You can define different panels and choose which ones are visible at any time by checking or unchecking the visible flag. For example, different panels may make sense depending on which kind of asset you are working on.Workspace configurationsUsing workspaces you can quickly switch between different window layouts for different workflow tasks. The following workspaces are predefined:Ingest - allows you to import files to analyse and catalog themLog - designed for tagging clips with log notes, creating event markers, and using the Verbatim LoggerBrowse - browse and search existing catalogs using automatic grouping and filteringCreate - select clips of interest and assemble them into a simple cuts-only sequence or shot list, then export them to various NLEs.Advanced - provide access to the "classic" toolbar familiar from earlier versions of CatDVWorkspaces can be customised as required. When configuring a workspace you can control:Which view definition is shown by defaultWhether the tree navigator is shown by default, and which sections and nodes of the tree are shownWhich buttons, and other controls such as the quick filter field or drop down list of views, are shown in the toolbarThe appearance of the tree (using sections or split panes or a single flat tree) and toolbar (whether labels are shown, and whether the workspaces are shown as buttons or in a drop down)Whether the clip details panel is shown (either with the media panel above the main window, or detached from the media panel and placed to the right of the window)Which details panel tabs are shownWhich of the available workspaces are shown as shortcuts in the toolbar (note that they all appear in the View > Workspace menu)It is also possible to override other regular preference settings such as which menu commands appear, whether deleting and editing of clips is allowed, and so onYou can edit the predefined workspaces or create new ones by using the View > Workspace > Edit command, but note that configuring workspaces is a specialised task that will normally be done by a systems integrator or workflow consultant when installing a system. Workspaces are defined using a simple text-based configuration script. In the workset editor press the 'Help' button to get a brief summary of the syntax, or press 'Defaults' to revert to the built-in predefined workspaces. If you don't want to use workspaces at all, simply delete all the workspace definitions and press OK. You can also choose the 'None' workspace if you don't want to override anything and just use normal settings from your preferences.When you load a workspace all the settings specified in that workspace configuration are applied, to change the view and tree layout for example. Other settings which aren't specified by the workspace configuration continue to have their normal value as specified in the preferences dialog.If you change one of these settings (for example, you decide you want to see the clip details panel even though the workspace you are using turns it off by default) then the value you have changed is remembered for the duration of the current session only. As soon as you quit and relaunch the application, or if you use the View > Workspace > Reload Rules command, then the workspace will revert to its default settings. This allows you to quickly change your view layout without messing up your stored workspace configurations.To permanently change the configuration you need to explicitly use the workspace editor and then save your preferences. (It is also possible to configure a workspace with the LockSettings option, preventing any temporary changes from being made.)User-defined fieldsIn the Professional edition you can have an unlimited number of user-defined logging fields. In Preferences you can give each user-defined field a name and specify its type:Field typesThe following types of field are available for user-defined columns and media metadata fields:Don't Show User-defined field values are stored by their index number so once allocated it isn't possible to delete a field and "shift the others up" as that would change the index numbers. Instead, you can mark unwanted fields so they are skipped and not shown. You can also mark metadata fields not be shown.Plain Text A free format plain text field. You can indicate whether this is intended for a single line or multiline text, though you can override this when adding the field to a custom panel layout.Multiline TextAs above but normally shown in a scrolling multi line text area.Grouping (Picklist) A drop down pick list of values. The values are defined on the Pick Lists section of Preferences. Normally only a predefined value from the list can be chosen, unless the field is marked as extensible. Grouping fields can be used to quickly filter clips in the main window using the tree navigator or grouping panel.Multi Grouping Similar to Grouping fields, except that the clip can be tagged with any number of values from a list, for example a list of keywords. When tagging a clip, start typing in the field to display the first matching keyword, then use the Up and Down arrows to view other matches. Press ';' to start a new keyword, or click on the '*' button to display a chooser dialog.Augo-suggest Very similar to a grouping field with a drop down list of predefined values but you can start typing and the system will filter the choices based on what you typeMulti Auto-suggest Like a multi grouping field with filtering capability.Hierarchy This is like a drop down pick list but where the available values are organised in a tree to make it easier to organise a large number of options (for example: continent/country/state/city) or when working with a structured vocabulary. Values are defined in the Pick Lists section, using '/' to separate the components.Multi Hierarchy A combination of functionality from the Hiearchy and Multi Grouping fields.Linked Hierarchy This allows you to link two pick lists, so the values shown in one depend on the value picked in another. You can the field id or name of the field it depends on in the parameter field. For example, if you had a grouping field called "Team" containing values TeamA, TeamB etc. then you could create a linked hierarchy field called "Player, "Team" in the parameters area, and with pick list values such as TeamA/Player1, TeamA/Player2, TeamB/Player3. Linked Multi Hierarchy A linked hierarchy field where you can select multiple values.Checkbox A single true/false checkbox. You can add an optional label for the checkbox in the parameters field, for example you might have a field called "Widescreen" with a label of "Anamorphic".Multi Checkbox Provides multi-grouping where the list of values is very small and can be displayed as checkboxes. The values are defined within the parameters area, one per line.Radio Button Similar to a Grouping field but where the number of options is small and can be specified within the parameters area (as for Multi Checkbox fields).Select Buttons Similar to radio buttons but where the options are defined in the pick lists section and appear as plain push buttons. In the parameters area you can specify the colour of the buttons.Multi-Select Buttons Similar to multi checkboxes but where the options are defined in the pick lists section and appear as plain push buttons. Just like single select buttons you can specify the colour of the buttons.Date Accepts a date or a date-time value. The format of the dates is specified in the General tab of Preferences (hover the mouse over the field to see tool tip help that shows an example of the format that it is expecting). You can also type in a date in ISO format, eg. "2016-12-31 23:59:59".Time Accepts either a time of day or a timestamp value, eg. "12:30:05" or "0:05:00;00".Number Accepts any numeric input, eg. "100" or "-17.5"Identifier Accepts an upper case alphanumeric identifier up to 32 characters, for example a project code number. Period, hyphen and underscore characters are permitted but other spaces and punctuation are removed.No Punctuation Accepts up to 80 alphanumeric characters plus space, hyphen and underscore. This is designed for entering short names or phrases that could be used when building a filename so punctuation and other illegal characters that can cause problems in filenames like period, asterisk, quotes, parentheses etc. are all excluded.Regex Validated For full control over what data can be entered in a formatted text field you can specify a regular expression in the parameters area. For example, "[A-Z][0-9]3" would only accept an upper case letter followed by 3 digits, eg. "A123" or "C999" and reject other values.HTML Text This is a special field that is not editable by the user but is used for displaying HTML formatted text that might have been stored in that field by a server plugin or worker script.Calculated FieldIf you create a user defined field of type 'Variable Expression' then this will result in a special kind of field where you can't directly type in a value but where the value is calculated dynamically based on other clip fields. The value is calculated when the clip is first loaded, or whenever the clip is modified.When configuring the field you can enter a CatDV Worker Node-style expression including regular expressions or use JavaScript. If the resulting value is of the form #rrggbb:xxx then it is interpreted as a hex color value. This provides another mechanism to achieve similar results to smart labels, and also to combine the results from a number of different fields into one. For example: $MFs,^/Volumes/([^/]+)/.*,$1,s,^/.*,, js:clip.rating>=3 ? "#00FF00:Pass" : "#FF0000:Fail" javascript:($('P5').startsWith("Online") ? "#00FF00:" : "#FF0000:") + $('P5') javascript:($('U5')=='Approved' ? "#00FF00:" : $('U5')=='Rejected' ? "#FF0000:" : "#0080FF:") + $('U5') javascript:$('@Model') $('@ModelName') $('@CameraModel') js:media['Model'] media['ModelName'] Media['CameraModel']JSON-FormattedFor certain advanced workflows (e.g. using the Worker Node, server plugins, and Pegasus client) some fields might store read-only JSON-formatted data. You can display these using an HTML template such as CodeDescription$item.code$item.descObject Link If you use Pegasus Server you can have a special kind of field that links to a custom object. This feature is not currently supported in the desktop client.Multi Object Links As above but linking to multiple objects.Please note that writing regular expressions and variable expressions, creating custom objects, and writing server plug ins to set HTML fields etc. are all very advanced topics designed for use by systems integrators or the Square Box Systems professional services team. A variable expression tester is available to help you test your calculated fields.User and metadata fieldsUser-defined fields apply to clips and are commonly used to enter logging information, or to trigger Worker Node actions. They are commonly referred to by user field index, for example in worker scripts. If you use Server 7.1 there is a single "All Fields" field set that ensures user field indices are consistent across different production groups, but you can still control which user fields are visible in particular production groups by assigning them to a particular field group and setting visibility of that field group. Fields which are not visible in the current production group will be omitted or shown as "----". To set up field groups and field visibility (based on production group or user role) use the administration pages in the web interface. You can also remap the user field indices from within the web interface if necessary.Media metadata fields apply to source media files and are normally created automatically when a file is imported to store technical metadata that is harvested from the file (for example, Exif metadata from still images, or XMP metadata from Adobe files). You can also create them manually if required, and can change the type and display label of existing metadata fields, just as you can with user-defined fields. You can also mark low level technical fields that you no interest in as "Don't show", so they hidden from display. An easy way to do this is to select the fields to hide and press the Delete key. You will be given the option whether to delete the field definition (but be aware that it might be added again automatically if it is encountered when importing a media file) or to mark is as being hidden.Field definition setsIf you are using the CatDV Enterprise Server then you will be familiar with saving different preference settings to the server for each production group, so that all the users in that group automatically load the group settings when they log on and share the same field definitions, view and panel layouts, and other settings. If you want several different production groups (and the worker node) to share the same field definitions you can create a named field definition / config set and then choose which config set each production group should use. The field config set also stores other settings such as pick list values, marker categories, Final Cut 7 field mappings, and customised names for built-in fields.If you use Server 7.1 (and leave the "Use Server 7 field definitions" option checked in Preferences) then field definitions are directly loaded from and saved to the server using the new server 7 metadata API. Field config sets are only used for other settings, and this is the recommended way of working. If you use Server 6 then fields definitions are loaded and saved via a named field definition set and you need to press the Edit button to explicitly edit this and ensure you have the latest version of the field set before making changes.Pick listsFields of type grouping, multi-grouping, and hierarchy take values from restricted list of values. You can edit these via the Pick Lists button, or using the administration web interface.Event detailsEvents provide a new mechanism for grouping related clips together. Often, there will be several clips that relate to the same occasion (for example, a particular interview or location, or an event such as a party). CatDV already provides a number of existing mechanisms for linking these clips, such as storing the media files in the same folder or assigning them a common bin name or user-defined grouping field value, but most of these mechanisms involve duplicating the description of the event in each field. With events the description is stored in the event itself. All the clips link to that event so the description is shared. 2ff7e9595c
