2 Enter a name for the new set of alternate elements in the Create Alternate Set box,
below the Alternates list box.
3 Click Add.
An entry for the new set of alternate elements appears in the Alternates list.
4 Click Save.
Note:
• You may refresh the Alternates list by clicking R .
• You may delete a set of alternate elements by selecting it in the Alternates list and
clicking Delete .
• When you select an entry in the Alternates list, its name and XML tag appear in the
Name and Tag boxes under Selected Alternate Details.
Creating a group of related sets of alternate elements
You can create a group of related sets of alternate elements by first defining a parent set
(e.g. "Languages") and then creating a child set for each set in the group (e.g. "French" and
"Spanish").
To create a group of related sets of alternate elements:
1 Select the parent set in the Alternates list.
2 Enter the name of a child set in the Create Alternate Set box, below the Alternates list
box.
3 Click Add Child.

An entry for the new set of alternate elements appears offset from its parent entry in
the Alternates list.
4 Click Save.
About logging templates
A logging template contains lists of the metadata types that can be assigned to assets in
the Annotate workspace. Custom metadata can be stored with an asset through the
schema that is linked to any assigned type.
Types are specified in two ways in the template: some are specified as asset types; others, as
event types.
• An Asset type is assigned to a whole asset.
• An Event type is assigned to a marked segment of an asset.
