1.3 : The Items List
An Overview Of The Items List
The items list shows the list of items that are associated with, or are a part of, the current project. To
see the items in a project, click on its name in the projects list. The items list will update to show the proj-
ect items.
The various item types, and their associated options and properties are described later on in this
chapter. This section deals only with the items list interface.
The items list is divided into convenient folder groups. These groups allow you to quickly locate spe-
cic types of items.
If you wish to revert to the single list display:
• Click the
options button located in the control panel. This will display a pop-up menu.
• Untick the show folders option in the menu.
In addition, from the same menu, you can also adjust the columns that are shown in the items list.
While it is not possible to drag content into the items list to add it, dragging existing items around
within the list is possible. This can be useful if you wish to change the order in which items are listed.
Note however that it is not possible to move items from one group folder to another, i.e., you cannot
drag items that are currently in the imported audio folder over into the recorded audio folder.
Items in the list can also be sorted by column by clicking on a column header. When folders are
shown, items are sorted within their folder groups. When folders are hidden, items are sorted in one
long list.
If you wish to copy items in the items list into an edit, you can quickly add them to the clipboard by
dragging them from the list into the clipboard area at the bottom right corner of the screen.
