Working with asset metadata
The properties dialog box displays information about an asset. The properties dialog box also includes
a user defined metadata feature that allows you to define and add your own information about an
asset. You can specify the metadata name, data type, and value.
The metadata you add for one asset automatically appears on properties pages for all existing and
future assets, except with no value entered. The values you specify for an asset are retained with
the asset for the following operations: copy, move, and send to. The metadata you define for an
asset can be used as search criteria in advanced search.
Metadata types and their possible values are described in the following table.
