This gives much more insight to what events are happening in the file and enables much faster labeling methods. You can use the keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl + Click) and (Shift + Click) to select, edit, and delete multiple segment labels at a time
Added New Columns - New columns have been added to the segment explorer control (Length, Time, Status, Uploaded, Last Modified, UUID). Note: Hide/show columns by right-clicking on the segment headers
Length
Total number of samples in segment
Time
Total segment time length (Hours / Minutes / Seconds) based on file sample rate
Status
Server sync status (Synced with server / Saved offline / Has pending changes to be saved)
Uploaded
Date/time segment was uploaded to the server
Last Modified
Date/time segment was last modified on the server
UUID
Server unique identifier for the segment
Column Sort Feature – Added the ability to sort segment data by clicking on the column header. This is useful for finding outliers in segment data
Segment Filters – Added the ability to filter segments in the segment explorer by event. This can be used by clicking (+ Filters) at the top of the segment explorer
Multi-Segment Selection - Added the ability to select multiple segments in the graph view by either holding (Ctrl + Click) or (Shift + Click) while selected segments. Selecting segments in the graph will highlight the associated segment labels in the segment control view
Status Column - The segment status column has been updated to tell more information about your segment server status. It has three states (Green - Synced with server, Gray - Saved offline, Edit Icon - Has pending changes to be saved)
Copy - Added the ability to copy a list of selected segments into another session. (Right + Click)
Copy UUID - Added the ability to copy a list of selected Segment UUIDs to your clipboard. (Right + Click) Segment UUIDs are unique identifiers used by the server and can be used as parameters for functions in the Analytics Studio Notebook
Segments Outside of Trim Area - If you have trimmed the ends of a file and there are segments outside of the trim area they will now show as gray in the segment explorer
Keyboard Shortcuts – New keyboard shortcuts have been added to make labeling data easier. Some old keyboard shortcuts have been updated. You can find the full list of DCL keyboard shortcuts under the menu option Help → Keyboard Shortcuts
