Entering Texts
Almost every item in a Play can be labeled with a text.
The texts are entered from a keyboard, and there is a special TEXT key that can be used to
quickly edit the text of a Sequence Step, or a Preset/Group in a Master.
Numbers and decimal point can be entered from the numerical keypad of the console(s).
IMPORTANT NOTE
If you have an external keyboard with a NUM LOCK key connected
you have to activate NUM LOCK for the numerical keypad in Congo
to work. This is because the numerical keypad on the external
keyboard and Congo's keypad are linked.
The TEXT Key
Press MODIFY in the text cell of a spreadsheet to activate text input, since the keys of an
external keyboard otherwise simulate functions keys of the console.
It is also possible to activate text input directly to specific items using the TEXT key.
