You have several ways to search for clips and placeholders in Clip Browser. The most common
way is to scroll down through the window to find the placeholder that you need. You can also get
to a specific placeholder by entering the first few characters of the placeholder name.

Click on one of the placeholders in the Clip Browser window and scroll down to search for other
placeholders.

Use the up and down arrow keys on your keyboard to navigate through the list.

To search for a specific placeholder, type the first character and the active bar will automatically
go to a placeholder that starts with that character. If you type a second character within 1 second
of the first character, the active bar will go to a placeholder that starts with those 2 characters. If
you enter the same character repeatedly, the active bar will navigate through all placeholders
that start with that character.

About the Playlist overview

of the playlist without disrupting the view in the main playlist window.

The Playlist Overview window shows clip’s status, page and clip name.
