Moving or Copying Asset References

You can move or copy the references of shotlists and other assets in the Asset Management Workspace by using drag and drop. This action does not move or copy the asset. You are moving and copying only the reference to the asset.

Valid asset references are pasted into the folder, and references to assets that are not allowed as contents of the folder are not pasted. If there is already an asset reference with the same identifier in the folder, a duplicate of the asset reference is pasted. If your selection contained folders and individual asset references, the folders and their contents as well as the individual asset references are moved.

You can move and copy asset references from the Browse app’s Results area to the directory or Results area of the same or another Browse app instance

To copy an asset reference to another folder:

1. Select one or more asset references in the Results area.

2. Drag the selection to the name of the folder into which you want to copy the asset references.

   The folder is highlighted in gray.

3. Release the mouse button.

To move an asset reference to another folder:

1. Select one or more asset references in the Results area.

2. Start dragging the selection.

3. Press the Shift key. You can directly release the Shift key because a Shift locker operation is enabled for this drag and drop operation.

4. Drop the selection to the name of the folder into which you want to move the asset reference(s).

   The asset reference is removed from its original location and added to the new location.
