3. Click the tab that represents the type of material you wish to assign to
a layout region in the playlist.
Note Only region(s) for which the Use Video Material option has been enabled can
accept video material; however, content of any type can be assigned to these
regions. They are not limited to only video material.
4. Click the list button [V] on the Category drop-down list and select the
category for which to display available material.
5. Click and drag material from the Material Bin Window to the desired
playlist material column at the desired start time. Drag the asset within
the column to position it as desired.
Note If you try to place a video asset in a region that has not been designated to
accept video material, the error dialog shown in Figure 276 appears. Click the
OK button to close the dialog. Then place the video asset in an appropriate
region.

6. When the asset is positioned at the desired location in the playlist, click
the left mouse button to anchor it at that point.
7. Click the Material Bin Window task bar item to reopen the window and
repeat Step 2 through Step 6 to add additional content to the playlist.
Note If you do not want the Material Bin Window to minimize each time an asset
is assigned to the playlist, you can elect to keep the bin window on top of the
playlist until it is closed or to display it when it is minimized (see Bin Window
Display Settings on page 224 for more information).
8. When all the desired material is added to the playlist, click the X in the
upper right corner of the Material Bin Window to close this window.
When finished assigning material to
the playlist, it may resemble the
example shown in Figure 277.
