Renaming, Deleting, and Clearing Entries in the EditDesk List

 
 
 

You can rename entries in the EditDesk list. You can also delete entries, or clear entries of their contents.

To rename an EditDesk list entry:

  1. Select the entry.
  2. Click the Name field at the bottom of the EditDesk list.
  3. Press Esc to clear the Name box.
  4. Type in a new name for the entry and press Enter.

To delete or clear an EditDesk list entry:

  1. Select the entry you want to delete or clear.
  2. Click Delete or Clear as required. (Clips can only be deleted, because they do not contain other entries.)

    When deleting or clearing entries, keep in mind the following:

    • When an entry is deleted, so are its contents. This includes clips and, in the case of folders, areas. For example, if you delete a Source Area, all its clips are deleted along with the Source Area itself.
    • When an entry is cleared, all of its contents are deleted. However, the entry itself remains. For example, if you clear a folder, all its Source Areas, Record Areas, and their respective clips are deleted, but the folder remains.
    • Deleting the top-level default folder clears the EditDesk list of all entries. A new default folder, Source Area, and Record Area are then created.
    NoteClearing and deleting EditDesk list entries does not affect the contents of the clip libraries belonging to your project.
