    Can't type metadata into bin column/Can't populate custom columns

    Hi all

     

    If I type text into a custom metadata bin column (Text view), nothing shows up. If I type into a default column such as "Comments", nothing shows up, but if I switch to Script view, whatever I type in "Comments" DOES show up. I f I switch back to text view, it's missing from "Comments" again.

     

    My assistant on the same NEXIS project on a PC doesn't have this issue. In fact if I type into a column on my system, it's blank, but the text I typed shows up on his system.

     

    TIA,

    Chris

    Re: Can't type metadata into bin column/Can't populate custom columns

    Hi Chris

    I'm having this issue with sequences on 2022.12.4 on a Mac Pro 7,1 running Monterey. Absolutly no metadata entry possible for sequences except start TC and name. With masterclips and subclips it works fine. 
    This problem occurs with newly created projects on 2022.12.4 as well as with migrated projects created in 2021.12.6 and earlier where it worked flawlessly.

    This is a real bummer as I used to burn in metadata from the sequence bin columns with the burn in effect (costum columns mainly) a lot.

    Would be nice to see a fix very soon.

    Cheers

    That is a pain, Lars. I might ask around and see if the issue can be escalated.

    Hopefully sorted soon, Cheers.

    I've run into this as well (in 21.12.9), and rolled back to 21.12.8 for the time being.

    Re: Can't type metadata into bin column/Can't populate custom columns

    Hi folks,

    I am also having this issue.  Thanks for documenting!

     

    So, to clarify, this is an issue in 2022.12.4, 5, 6, and 9 but not 2022.12.8?  Jared, rolling back to 2022.12.8 worked for you?

     

    Thanks!

    There's no 2022.12.5/6/7/8/9 yet. 2022.12.3 does not have this bug. 2022.12.4 does.

    Ah thanks, Job ter Burg.  I misread some of the other posts as referencing 2022 when they were actually 2021, and was very confused.  Thanks for setting me straight!
