• Inherited metadata between co-references can be annotated and all other
associated assets will reference the latest instance.
• Inherited metadata associated with an EDIT is read only and can only be
changed when you annotate the source assets.

As you add fields to a schema, you set various properties for them. These properties are
listed in the Field Details section, to the right of the Fields list box, when a field is selected.
The Display As property sets the field type.
