This guide will show you how to create a Picklist in TRS19 or TANE (both programs use identical methods). For instructions on how to move a Picklist, see the wiki page How to Move a Picklist

Both programs provide you with two different methods of creating Picklists, using either Content Manager (or Manage Content from the TANE/TRS19 Launcher) or in Surveyor.

Using Content Manager (CM)

From the TRS19 or TANE Launcher
  1. select Manage Content
  2. (optional step) in Content Manager select a filter or create a custom filter to show the assets you want in the Picklist
  3. use the left mouse button and either the Ctrl or Shift key to click on each asset that is to be added to the Picklist
