Please note: You need project manager permissions to be able to manage objects. |
Editing Objects
When you’re working in a spreadsheet, you can double-click any value where a pencil icon appears when you hover your mouse over it to start editing.
You can also click the name of the object to bring in the Sidebar from the right. From the Sidebar’s Info tab, you’re able to change all properties on the selected object.
Deleting Objects
To delete an object, select it in the spreadsheet then click the trash bin icon in the tool bar.
If you are using manual save mode, you will need to click the save icon to commit the changes.
You can also open the object's Sidebar, click the 3-dot icon at the top right corner, and select Delete in the menu that appears.
| Note: Deleting any items from a project is a permanent action and cannot be undone. |
Copying and Pasting Objects
Select an object and press Ctrl+C / Cmd+C to copy the item. You can also select multiple items with Shift+Select / Ctrl+Select and copy all selected items at once. To paste an object, you select an item and press Ctrl+V / Cmd+V.
Sequences can only be pasted under a project or episode, shots can only be pasted under a sequence, but tasks can be pasted anywhere.
Moving Objects
The easiest way to move objects is to drag and drop them in the spreadsheet. For instance, drag a shot to another sequence.
You can select multiple objects and drag and drop all objects at once. You can also bring up the Move dialog from the right-click menu.
Objects can only be moved if the “Move objects” permission is set for the user and project.

Please note: You cannot move objects between projects. Tip: The Move to drop-down will only show valid destinations for your selected object. |
