Global metadata panel and quick view
Global metadata can be summarised as metadata that corresponds to all cameras and which will be saved with the next created still or recorded clip.
To collect global metadata, you can use the following tools, which allow you to enter metadata while shooting:
- the global metadata panel
- the global metadata quick view

All slating metadata and other fields that apply to all slots can be overviewed and set via the global metadata panel, which can be found in the right sidebar.
