ngle folder in the right pane of the
Content Management window and deselect all files or folders.
2. Select Auto
set All DMX from either the Media Folders or Objects drop down menu or
the right click popup list. The CMA will assign a valid DMX value to all selected files or
folders.
Using the same steps, you can also Rese
t DMX for a single file or folder or Reset All DMX for
all display files or folders displayed in the right pane to zero.
Editing User Content DMX Values
You can manually assign any valid DMX value to your files or folders by selecting the file or
folder in the right pane and then, using the pull down menu or the right click popup, selecting
Edit DMX. A dialog box will allow you to input the DMX value. If it is a valid value from
0-255, the CMA will change the DMX value displayed for the file or folder.
