Viewing Clips in Titles Mode

Use Titles mode to view all the entries in a clip library by name.

To view titles:

1. Do one of the following:
   • From the View Mode box, select Titles.
   • Press T.

In Titles mode, entries are presented as a series of horizontal bars.

The bars consist of the following arrow buttons and fields.

Expand or Collapse arrow

Click the Expand or Collapse arrow to expand or collapse entries. See Expanding and Collapsing Entries in Titles and Proxies Mode.

The colour of the box surrounding the arrow indicates the type of entry. The colour of the arrow indicates whether contained entries are selected. See Entry Colours.

Name field

Contains the entry's name. If a name is not specified when an entry is saved, this field is labelled <untitled>. See Renaming Entries.

Name Sort arrow

Click to alphabetically sort entries by name. See Sorting Entries in Titles and Proxies Mode.

Description field

Contains a brief description of the entry. For example, a Source Area entry is described as “Source Area - n Clips” where n is the number of clips in the Source Area entry.

Creation Date field

Provides the date and time the entry was created.

Date Sort arrow

Click to sort entries by creation date. See Sorting Entries in Titles and Proxies Mode.
