92 Chapter 4 Creating and Using a Cinema Tools Database
To use the Find command to find records in the open database:
1 Open the Find dialog by doing one of the following:
 Click the Find button in the Detail View window.
 Choose Database > Find.
 Press Command-F.
2 Choose one of the following from the pop-up menu:
 Replace Existing: Found records replace the records displayed in the List View window.
 Add to Existing: Found records are added to the set in the List View window.
∏
Tip: The Add to Existing option is useful when you want to find records for more than
one scene, but not for all scenes. For example, to see only the records for scenes 5 and
6, choose Replace Existing, enter 5 in the Scene field, then click Match. Then, choose
Add to Existing, enter 6 in the Scene field, and click Match. Only the records for scenes
5 and 6 appear in the List View window.
3 Do one of the following:
 To find all the records in the open database, leave the Scene and Take fields blank and
click Find All.
 To find all the records for a particular scene or shot, enter the identifier for that scene or
shot in the Scene field, leave the Take field blank, then click the Match button. (The
Take field is ignored unless you select the Exact checkbox.)
For example, if you enter 1 in the Scene field, then click Match, Cinema Tools finds all
records associated with scene 1, including the shots 1, 1A, 1B, 1C, and so on. If you
enter 1A in the Scene field, only the records for scene 1A are found.
 To find the record for a specific scene and take, enter the scene and take identifiers in
the Scene and Take fields, select Exact, then click Match.
The found records appear in the List View window.
