Accepted Answer

How to use the search bar

The search bar query is applied every time a new character is typed. You don't need to type everything to get a quick result.

For example, in the assets page, type the letters Ot and you get the result of all the assets starting with an Ot.

You can also search for some specific type of asset: Props, Character, Environment, Fx … The result displays all the assets from this type.

For example, let's search all the FX assets.

Another example gets shots page of a specific sequence. Ex: see only the shots of the second sequence of the first episode.

Select the first episode on the drop-down menu, then search sq002, the result gets all the shots of all the episodes from sequence SQ002.

In the same way, you can search specific status link to the task.

Easiest way will be to use the filter builder

Under the Task Status click on the + and select the Task Type and the Status you want to filter.
