Linking clip to a placeholder

Prior to importing, you can link a clip to a placeholder.

Note: For playout, make sure the clip import destination is the same as the playout location.

Double-click on a clip.
The clip properties display in the Inspector.
In the Link To Placeholder tab, click the Missing Placeholders Only button to only display placeholders with missing clips.
Select a placeholder to link the clip to.
Click the Link button. The placeholder name and ID filled in to replace the previous name of the clip. The clip is now associated with the placeholder, and the placeholder is categorized as being edited in the Assignment List.

After the clip is imported, the placeholder status in the Assignment List changes to READY and the duration is updated.
