The Selected Cuelist Window

The Selected Cuelist screen is the primary display for manipulating Cuelists. You access the screen by pressing the Cuelist - Values view button, it is on the left side of this view.

Button Description

The Selected Cuelist screen contains a number of buttons with varying levels of functionality in the header of the Cuelist.

Option Description
OPTIONS This button accesses the options for the selected cuelist, a further, for more info see the Cuelist Options chapter. 
Follow Values (Default ON) When this button is highlighted (red), the carat, the “>>” next to Cue 1 that indicates the current cue will advance as each cue is executed, but the cuelist will not automatically scroll down following the carat. The highlight bar (the bright blue bar shown over Cue 1) will remain on the last selected cue.
Follow Cue (Default on) With only Follow Cue selected, the carat and the highlight bar advance together as cues are executed, but the screen will not automatically scroll if the cuelist is longer than the number of cues that can be displayed on the screen.
Follow Grid (Default on) Again, the carat will advance as cues are executed and the highlight bar remains at the last selected cue, but when Follow Grid is selected, the cuelist will automatically scroll down following the carat.
ADD MACRO This button is adds a Macro to execute when the cue is triggered. Macros are covered here.
INSERT LINK This button is adds a link to another cue in the cuelist. Links specifically, will be covered later in this manual.
MARK Toggle This button enables and disables the auto-marking feature for the selected cue. Read about Mark Here.
RENUMBER

When selected (highlighted in red) this button allows for the renumbering of cues as described in the “Renumbering Cues” chapter. When deselected, pressing or clicking on the cue numbers will load the information for the selected cue into the “Cuelist Values” screen.
EDIT MODE This button toggles access the Add Macro, Insert Link, Name, Trigger, Delay, Fade, Fade Mode, Path, and Comment cue modifiers thereby preventing accidental changes. By default, Edit Mode is disabled. Please note that “Edit Mode” does not prevent the recording, deselecting or editing of cue contents; it pertains only to the cue modifiers listed above. Also, the “Edit Mode” button will maintain its state (locked or unlocked) regardless of the Cuelist or view displayed.
PRE-SELECT FOR NEXT GO When enabled (red), you can jump to any cue in the Cuelist by selecting it in the number (No) column. The cue specified will have a red box around its number and will execute on the next Go.

In addition to these buttons, you will find text that tells you the cue type (Cuelist, Chase, Override. etc.) and the Cuelist number (in this case Cuelist 13). Directly below this is the Cuelist label. By default, the Cuelist label is the same as the Cuelist number.

To edit this label:
  1. Ensure that Edit Mode is active (red)
  2. Select the default text (Cuelist xx) by touching or clicking on the text on the touch screen.
  3. The text will highlight in red.
  4. Using the keyboard, enter the desired text.
  5. Press Enter and the Cuelist will be relabeled.

Note that the new label is also displayed in the appropriate Cuelist selection and that the Cuelist number, found above the label on the touch screen remains unchanged.
