About the Placeholders Workspace
The workspace contains features you use to:
• Search through the assets in the iTX System Database to find placeholder clips.
• Select a placeholder clip.
• View and edit the placeholder-clip metadata.
This workspace has just one level, with similar features to the Browse workspace:
The purpose of each section is described below:
1 A Search Builder, with an in-built filter for finding placeholder clips. You can add search
criteria, before starting a search.
2 A Results Browser, containing a results table, for displaying search results.
3 A Metadata panel, in which you view the metadata of a selected placeholder clip.
