Adding Elements to a Playlist

7.6.1.

Possible Operations

Several kinds of elements can be added to a playlist, which are: clips, trains, bins,
playlists and growing clips. Depending on the element to be added, different methods can
be used to add it to the playlist:

by dragging the element(s) to the requested position in the playlist,

by using the APPEND CLIP button,

by sending the element to the default playlist.

7.6.2.

Adding Elements by Drag-and-Drop
Operations

Some limitations exist for the drag-and-drop operations and for the insertion of a train.
Refer to the chapter on "Playlist Panel" in part 6 of the manual for more information.

In the drag-and-drop operation, the thick line indicates the position where the element will
be dropped.

There are nevertheless several places in IPDirector where you can select the element(s)
that you will drag into the playlist:

from the Loaded Media drop-down list in the Loaded Media Pane in a Control Panel

from the Last Clips Created drop-down list in the Clip Creation area of a Control
Panel

from a playlist open in the Clip-List tab of another Control Panel

from a playlist open in a Playlist Panel

from a list of clips or playlists displayed in the Elements grid of the Database Explorer

7.6.3.

How to Append an Element at the End of a
Playlist

Using the APPEND CLIP Button of the Control Panel

When a playlist has been set as default, elements such as a clip, a file, a growing clip, a
train or a playlist element can be appended at the end of the playlist by clicking on the
APPEND CLIP button.

This can be done on a playlist you are creating from the Control Panel.
