Logging Bin Controls

The Logging Bin controls have the following buttons.

New Bin

Up

The Log Bin button
contains the name of the
currently selected
logging bin.

Log Bin: This button displays the name of the bin in your project where logged clips

will be placed. There can be only one logging bin at a time, no matter how many
projects are open. When you click this button, the bin opens in its own window; if the
bin is already open, the bin’s window comes to the front.

Up: Click to move the logging bin up a level from the currently selected one. For

example, you could switch from a bin to the bin that contains it. If the current logging
bin is at the highest level, clicking this button assigns the project itself as the logging
bin.

New Bin: Click this button to create a new bin inside of the currently selected bin, and

set it as the logging bin.
