Using the Cast window

In the Cast window, you can view the cast in either the default List view or the Thumbnail view. (To change the default so that the Cast window opens in Thumbnail view, see Setting Cast window preferences.)

You can do the following in the Cast window:

  • Organize and display all media in a movie.
  • Move groups of cast members.
  • Start editors for cast members.
  • Launch the Property inspector to view, add, and change comments about your cast members and to view and modify cast member properties.
  • Group multiple casts in a tabbed view using panel groups (see Working with Cast panel groups).

To view the Cast window, select Window > Cast or press Control+3 (Windows) or Command+3 (Mac). If there is more than one cast in the movie, specify which Cast window to open by selecting a cast name from the Cast submenu.
