Once People keywords are assigned to one or more clips, a People smart category of

choosing Workspace > People. You can reset all faces by clicking the People
Management Option menu and choosing “Reset Face Database.”
NOTE: A command in the Option menu of the Face Recognition window,
Reset Face Database, lets you reset all analyzed results if the results are not
acceptable and you don’t want to save the resulting metadata.
Creating Custom Metadata Groups
The Metadata panel in the User Preferences lets you create custom sets of metadata
parameters that will be exposed in the Metadata Editor. Using this panel, you can create
customized subsets of metadata that are focused on your particular needs.
Presets that you create are available from the Option menu that’s just to the left of the Metadata
categories drop-down menu.
Custom Metadata Categories drop-down menu
Choose any custom preset to restrict the Metadata Editor to only showing the metadata fields in
that preset. To see the full set of custom metadata fields you’ve saved to a particular preset, you
should set the Metadata Categories drop-down menu to All Groups. To make the full set of
metadata fields reappear, just choose default presets in the same drop-down.
