When a clip is successfully created, moved or copied the status bar at the base of
the IP Director main window will show the successful operation.
If an operation has failed the bar will have a red background warning that the
operation was not successful. Using the drop-down feature on the bar will reveal a
list of recent operations.
To cancel the red background when an operation has been unsuccessful click on
the ACK button (acknowledge) next to the status bar.
4.7 SAVE CLIP WINDOW
While creating a new clip, the users have to click the New Clip button on the Clip
Creation pane. This will open the Save Clip window (if the Open Save Clip
Window option is checked in the Clip Creation tab of the Tools > Settings menu).
This window makes it possible to enter general and customer-defined data (called
“metadata”) for the clip.
