| 62 | We now add a metadata item -- both element and value -- to a file. First select
|
|---|
| 63 | the file from the Collection file tree on the left. The action causes any
|
|---|
| 64 | metadata previously assigned to this file to appear in the table at the right.
|
|---|
| 65 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 66 | Next select the metadata element you want to add by clicking its row in the
|
|---|
| 67 | table.
|
|---|
| 68 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 69 | Type the value into the value field. Do not use the character "|", as it is
|
|---|
| 70 | used for constructing hierarchies. When finished, click "Append" to add the new
|
|---|
| 71 | value as metadata for the chosen file. The value immediately appears in the
|
|---|
| 72 | Metadata table.
|
|---|
| 73 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 74 | You can also add metadata to a folder, or to several multiply selected files at
|
|---|
| 75 | once. It is added to all files within the folder or selection, and to child
|
|---|
| 76 | folders. Keep in mind that if you assign metadata to a folder, any new files in
|
|---|
| 77 | it automatically inherit the folder's values.
|
|---|
| 78 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 79 | If you choose metadata that occurs in some of the selected files and click
|
|---|
| 80 | "Append", it is added to the other files in the selection too.
