Additional Display Properties for Different Field Types

• String Fields – With Info View or Info Window only
You can define the number of lines to display the contents of the field. For String List fields you can define the number of lines as well as display options. For String List fields that do not allow multi-select, you can decide to have the values displayed as drop-down list or radio buttons.

NOTE: String Fields – Scroll Bar Display for Info View/Window on Mac OS!
To have a scroll bar available for a String field in Info View or Info Window, you need to give it at least 5 lines.

• Picture Fields – With Info Window, Thumbnail, Report and Info View
Icons can be displayed to quickly inform about embedded metadata (e.g. EXIF, IPTC and XMP data as well as included color profiles, multi-page assets or the availability of versions).

NOTE:
To display icons for embedded metadata, a catalog must contain the Embedded Metadata Standards field. If you add this field to an existing catalog, make sure to subsequently update all records of the respective catalog in order to have the new field taken into account.
To do so, select Metadata > Update Record > Advanced. Activate the Update even if assets are unchanged option and restrict the update to the Embedded Metadata Standards field, then click OK.
