| 62 | Sometimes you need to see the metadata assigned to many or all files at once -- for instance,
|
|---|
| 63 | to determine how many files are left to work on, or to get some idea of the
|
|---|
| 64 | spread of dates.
|
|---|
| 65 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 66 | Select the files you wish to examine, then right-click and choose "Assigned Metadata...". A window called
|
|---|
| 67 | "All Metadata", dominated by a large table with many columns, appears. The
|
|---|
| 68 | first column shows file names; the rows show all metadata values assigned to
|
|---|
| 69 | those files.
|
|---|
| 70 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 71 | Drawing the table can take some time if many files are selected. You can continue to use the Librarian
|
|---|
| 72 | Interface while the "All Metadata" window is open.
|
|---|
| 73 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 74 | Click "Close" to hide the window.

| 76 | <img width="20" src="../gatherer_small.gif" height="20"><a name="advanced"> Advanced Instructions:</a>
|
|---|
| 77 | <p style="text-align:justify"></p>
|
|---|
| 78 | You can also view the "All Metadata" table by selecting the files you wish to
|
|---|
| 79 | examine, right-clicking, and choosing "Assigned Metadata...". If a folder has
|
|---|
| 80 | been selected, all its child files are included in the table.
|
|---|
| 81 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 82 | When it gets too large, you can filter the "All Metadata" table by applying
|
|---|
| 83 | filters to the columns. As new filters are added, only those rows that match
|
|---|
| 84 | them remain visible. To set, modify or clear a filter, click on the "funnel"
|
|---|
| 85 | icon at the top of a column. You are prompted for information about the filter.
|
|---|
| 86 | Once a filter is set, the column header changes colour.
|
|---|
| 87 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 88 | The prompt has a "Simple" and an "Advanced" tab. The Simple version filters
|
|---|
| 89 | columns so that they only show rows that contain a certain metadata value ("*"
|
|---|
| 90 | matches all values). You can select metadata values from the pull-down list.
|
|---|
| 91 | The Advanced version allows different matching operations: must start with,
|
|---|
| 92 | does not contain, alphabetically less than and is equal to. The value to be
|
|---|
| 93 | matched can be edited to be any string (including "*"), and you can choose
|
|---|
| 94 | whether the matching should be case insensitive. Finally, you can specify a
|
|---|
| 95 | second matching condition that you can use to specify a range of values (by
|
|---|
| 96 | selecting AND) or alternative values (by selecting OR). Below this area is a
|
|---|
| 97 | box that allows you to change the sort order (ascending or descending). Once
|
|---|
| 98 | you have finished, click "Set Filter" to apply the new filter to the column.
|
|---|
| 99 | Click "Clear Filter" to remove a current filter. Note that the filter details
|
|---|
| 100 | are retained even when the filter is cleared.
|
|---|
| 101 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 102 | For example, to sort the "All Metadata" table, choose a column, select the
|
|---|
| 103 | default filter setting (a Simple filter on "*"), and choose ascending or
|
|---|
| 104 | descending ordering.
