Edit metadata in Maya LT

To edit metadata using the marking menu

1. Right-click an object and select Metadata > Select Stream to select the stream and member for which you want to edit metadata.

   This enables metadata visualization.

2. In the viewport, select the components on the object with metadata that you want to edit.
3. Right-click the object and select Metadata > Edit Metadata.
4. In the Edit Metadata window that appears, verify the Current Stream is the one you want to edit.
   Note: If you select components on the object that have no metadata stream attached, an error appears.
5. Edit the metadata values.

   Viewport 2.0 now reflects the edited metadata values.
