Inserts an Object into a Collection at the current location.
The Insert command is found upon the Context Sensitive Menu in both the Tree View and the Table View.
You can insert more than one Object at a time by selecting multiple Objects prior to executing the Insert command.
For example if you wish to insert three Programs at location 10, select Programs 10, 11 and 12 and then execute the Insert command.
Note that when you insert one or more Objects, then the commensurate number of Objects at the end of the Parent Collection are removed if required. This is necessary to maintain the correct number of Objects in a Collection.
For example, a Program Branch Collection can only contain 128 Programs, so if two Programs are inserted into the Collection then two Programs must be removed from the end of the Collection to maintain the correct size.
px.factory will maintain the references to Objects in a Collection when inserting Objects, as follows:
Collection Type | Objects Updated |
Program | Play List - Set - Set List - Program Slots |
For example if you insert a Program into a file Program Bank at Location 10, then any Play Lists which are referencing Programs in the bank at Locations 10 and above will be updated to ensure they still reference the same Programs after the insert operation as they were before the insert operation.
