You can view clip libraries in either Single, or Dual View mode. The libraries' contents can be viewed in Proxies, Titles, or List View mode. Switch modes by selecting a view from the View Mode box or by pressing P (Proxies), T (Titles), or L (List View).
Use Titles mode to view all the entries in a clip library by name.
In Titles mode, entries are presented as a series of horizontal bars.
(a) Collapse arrow (b) Name Sort arrow (c) Date Sort arrow (d) Source Format indicator (e) Name (f) Description (g) Creation Date field
The bars consist of the following arrow buttons and fields.
Expand or Collapse arrowClick 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 fieldContains 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 arrowClick to alphabetically sort entries by name. See Sorting Entries in Titles and Proxies Mode.
Description fieldContains 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 fieldProvides the date and time the entry was created.
Date Sort arrowClick to sort entries by creation date. See Sorting Entries in Titles and Proxies Mode.
Use Proxies mode to view the clips in a clip library as proxy images. Clips only appear in Proxies mode if the entry that contains them is expanded. All other entries are listed as titles.

Viewing Clips in List View Mode
Use List View mode to view the clips in a clip library in a list.
List View provides most of the same functionality as Titles or Proxies mode—you can select, load, delete, and name entries. However, you cannot perform drag and drop operations, such as moving or copying entries, in List View.
