As the Library in a DF Studio account grows over time, the ability to find Projects quickly will depend on sorting and searching through the information associated with each Project. Therefore, it is important to specify as many details as possible on each Project. Keywords, photographer information, and other data can be added to a Project in the Project Details overlay.

A Project’s “Details” button can be found in the Project Inspector, which occupies the right-hand sidebar of the DF Studio Library view after selecting any Project.

This button can also be found in the Project Inspector while working within a Project. (The Project Inspector replaces the Asset Inspector when no assets are selected.)

Once the Project Details overlay is open, clicking the “Edit” button will allow changes to the Project data.

The Project Name, Subject, Project Type and Status, Client, Shoot Date, Photographer, Location, and Keywords can be modified, as well as a text field for Internal Notes related to the Project. For accounts with custom metadata fields configured for Projects, this metadata can be modified in the right-hand column of the Project Details overlay, beneath the standard Project metadata fields.

Specify a Project Keyframe

A default keyframe is selected from each Project’s image previews to represent that Project in library views, such as the listing of items in a folder, or in search results. To specify a custom keyframe, select any asset within the Project and click the “Use as Keyframe” button from the Asset Inspector. The preview from the selected image will become the Project’s new keyframe.
