5. Click OK.
Note
Notice there’s a Search box at the top of the Metadata Display settings. Enter the name of
an item here to locate it if you’re not sure which category to browse in.
Media Type is now added as a heading for the Theft Unexpected bin only. You can apply the
change to every bin in one step by using the panel menu in the Project panel to access the
Metadata Display settings, rather than in an individual bin.
How Metadata display settings are stored
Metadata display settings for individual bins are saved in the project file, while Metadata
display settings for the Project panel are saved with the workspace.
Any bins without modified Metadata display settings will inherit the settings from the
Project panel.
Note
Several useful bin columns are displayed by default, including the Good check box. Select
this box for clips you prefer, and then click the column heading to sort selected shots from
unwanted content.
Some columns provide information only, while others can be edited directly in the bin. The
Scene column, for example, allows you to add a scene number for each clip, while the Media
Type column gives information about the original media and cannot be edited directly.
If you add information and press the Return (macOS) or Enter (Windows) key, Premiere Pro
activates the same box for the next clip down. This way, you can use the keyboard to quickly
enter information about several clips, jumping from one box to the next without using your
mouse. You can also use the Tab key to move between boxes toward the right, and you can press
Shift+Tab to move between boxes toward the left. This way, you can leave the mouse and switch
to a faster keyboard workflow for metadata entry (it also leaves a hand free to hold a cup of
coffee...).
