To learn more about the various features of {site.name}, just select a topic on the left.

For more information about pan.do/ra, the software behind this website, visit pan.do/ra, and take a tour.

If you just want to explore {site.name}, watch {itemName.plural} and browse annotations, you can do so without a user account.

But in case you want to add your own annotations, create your own lists and make use of some of the site's more advanced features, please {signup}.

Lists of {itemName.plural}, and also individual {itemName.singular} themselves, can be displayed in different views. Both for lists and for {itemName.plural}, you'll find the menu to switch between views in the toolbar near the top of the screen.

## List Views

as List | A table with fully configurable columns

## Item Views

Info | Basic information about the {itemName.singular}
Player | A video player
Editor | An editor to add time-based annotations
Timeline | A small video player that moves on a large timeline
Clips | A grid of all clips of the current {itemName.singular}
Map | A map with all places that appear in the current {itemName.singular}

A timeline is a visual signature of a {itemName.singular}. It provides an instant overview of its structure over time, and can be used for navigation. You can switch between different types of timelines: anti-alias (average colors), slit-scan (see below), keyframes (full frames) and waveform (audio).

Some views don't show lists of {itemName.plural}, but lists of video clips — for example clips matching your query, or related to a specific location on a map. These clips can be sorted by various properties (like saturation, see below), and each clip is a video player. The video will load once you've selected it, and you can then simply click to play. If you doubleclick, you'll get to the {itemName.singular} itself, and its video player will be at the very position of the clip.

Any list of {itemName.plural}, just like every individual {itemName.singular}, can be displayed as a map. This map shows all places that appear in annotations, and selecting a place will display a list of all matching clips.

Calendars work just like maps (you can pan or zoom in and out), but they don't show places on a world map, but historic events on a timeline. Selecting an event will display a list of matching clips.

To search {site.name}, just type something in the find box in the upper right corner of the screen, and press enter. The site returns all exact matches, so there is no need to enclose multiple words in quotes.

The find box also includes a menu that lets you specify what exactly you're searching for — for example the title of a {itemName.singular}, a particular person, or a specific type of annotation.

From that menu, you can also access the advanced find options. Below, you can see how to search for "All {itemName.plural} from 1968 that were made in France, Italy, East Germany or West Germany". You can also save any search as a smart list that you can access at any time, and that will update dynamically.

Often, the easiest way to instantly find what you're looking for is to use filters. Below, you can see how to find, with just three clicks, all German-language {itemName.plural} from either East Germany or West Germany. You can then narrow down you search even further, for example by picking a specific year.

A list is simply a list of {itemName.plural}, and you can create as many lists as you want. These lists behave like folders — you can add {itemName.plural} to them, either via drag & drop or via copy & paste, and you can also remove any item from a list.

Smart lists, on the other hand, are saved searches (like "all {itemName.plural} longer than one hour" or "all French {itemName.plural} from the 1960s"), and they will update dynamically.

All personal lists you create are initially private, but you can share them by making them public, so that other users can find and browse them, and add them to their favorites. Your own favorite lists are initially empty, but if you click on "Manage Favorite Lists", you will see all public lists, and you can add the ones you like to your favorites.

Finally, there are featured lists, which are selected public lists, picked by {site.name}.

In the player view, you'll get a video player, including a fullscreen mode, and various controls to set the video's volume, position or resolution. You can also search right in the player, and the results will be highlighted on the timeline. You don't even have to move your mouse — for what you see below, you can just type F road ENTER G G G SHIFT+G and so on.

In the editor view, you can add and edit time-based annotations. Just set an in point and an out point, and pick one of the different types of annotations to add.
