Key Operations

FIGURE 7 Custom Check-in Dialog on Ingest

To test the metadata capture enforcement feature and make the customized check-in dialog

appear, you need to open a file, modify it, and check in the modified version to a Version Cue

project.

1. Ensure Version Cue Server is running with a plug-in like sample.customdialog loaded for

the custom check-in dialog to appear.

2. Make sure you have at least one standard Version Cue project on the Version Cue Server,

with at least one file.

3. Navigate to the standard Version Cue project with at least one file, so that a file can be seen

in the Content pane of Bridge.

4. Select a file in the Content pane. Check-out the asset from the context-sensitive menu item.

5. With the checked-out file selected in the Content pane of Bridge, execute a right-mouse

click (or ctrl-click for a single-button mouse on Mac OS) to bring up a context-sensitive

menu. Use Reveal in Explorer to find out where the local replica file is located.

6. Modify the local replica file, and return to Bridge.

7. With the checked-out file selected, execute check-in from the context-sensitive menu asso-

ciated with the file.

8. At this point you should see a custom check-in dialog, similar to that shown in Figure 8.

9. Note that the dialog has logic to enforce that you enter a check-in comment; if you do not

do so, the OK button to dismiss the dialog is not enabled. This is a form of metadata

enforcement, since it requires you to supply metadata about the file being checked in before

you can successfully complete the check-in operation.
