User-Configurable Preference Settings

In addition to Final Cut Server System Preferences and the Preferences pane of the
client’s Administration window, there is a third set of preferences that are intended to
be used by users to customize how Final Cut Server works for them. These preferences
only affect a user when using a particular client on a particular computer. (If the user
logs in to a client on a different computer, the user’s preference settings do not follow.)

To configure the user preference settings, do one of the following:

m

Choose Final Cut Server > Preferences.

m

Choose Preferences from the Server pop-up menu (the pop-up menu in the
Final Cut Server main window that appears when you click the Server button).

The Preferences window has two sections: Searching and Local Media Storage. Once you
have finished configuring them, click the Apply Changes button to save the settings.

Searching Settings

The Searching settings allow a user to customize how the search results appear. This
can be useful if you have a large or small display.

Following are the Searching section settings:

 Maximum # of Search Results: Enter a value that is the maximum number of items

that appear after a search.

 Items Per Page: Search results are divided into pages to make viewing more efficient.

You can enter a value that defines how many items appear on each page.

 Remember the last search: Select this checkbox to have Final Cut Server remember

and run the last search that you performed the next time you log in.
