Creating and using playlists
Configuring the Playlist table columns
The playlist table’s columns display information about each page, template, scene, or clip
included in the playlist/segment. Using the C
OLUMN L AYOUT dialog box (figure 6-3 ), you can
determine which columns are displayed or hidden in the playlist. You can also determine
the order in which the columns appear in the playlist.
Column headings that are currently displayed in the playlist are listed in the S ELECTED
C OLUMNS text box (on the right), while hidden column headings are listed in the A VAILABLE
C OLUMNS text box (on the left). Customizing the playlist column means simply moving the
headings from on side to the other (see the instructions below). The C OLUMN L AYOUT dialog
box conveniently also offers two (2) standard layouts: B ASIC and F ULL .
Figure 6-3. Column Layout dialog box
The following table lists and describes all of the available column categories that can be
displayed in the Playlist Editor:

originally saved as an asset.
You can also add/edit the description text of a page, template,
scene or clip asset by editing the Description field in the
Template Editor when the asset is opened. See

properties associated to the playlist items” on page 6-24 for
more information.

will be sent.
