  • How to Highlight a Sequence in Bin? MC6

    How do you highlight or color label a sequence in your bin using MC6? I once had a label column to the right on the sequences, but it disappeared after I changed from “statistics” to “film” and back.

    Thanks

    Go to the fast menu in the bottom left of your bin and select Choose Columns.

    Activate “Colors”.

    Save your bin layout and you won’t have to remap it every time.

    Sandy,

    I also like to use the Comments column for adding details. It doesn’t show up unless you already have a comment. So here’s what I do.

    Change view to “Script” and name a note in the box. Then go to the Columns view like Michael mentions and you will see Comments. After hitting OK, you can move columns around so Comments appears right after Color, or any other column. Then Save it and call it whatever you like. My favorite is “Don’t Click Here”
