Chapter 11 Managing Metadata 137
II
The relationships between the various metadata items for assets and productions are
as follows:
Each of these metadata items is configured in its own pane:
 Metadata Field pane: This is where you create new metadata fields or edit existing
fields. See “
Metadata Fields” on page 138 for more information.
 Lookup pane: This is where you create pop-up menus that can be used by the
metadata fields. Using pop-up menus instead of text or number entry fields can
make entering metadata easier and more precise. See “Metadata Lookups” on
page 151 for more information.
 Metadata Group pane: This is where you create groups of metadata fields. See
“Metadata Groups” on page 143 for more information.
