A Cue contains various data relating to different features of the console. From time to
time, it may be necessary to edit the contents of one or more cues. The data to be
edited may be associated with Faders, Modules or Master Title as previously
described or MIDI and Events (see section 8).

The current view can be edited directly from the Edit-menu, or through double-click-
ing in the cue view, while those views that are not open can be called up from the
View menu. If you want to edit a Cue Title, Dynamic action or lists of these, then
select Edit in the menu bar of SAM’s cue view.

Perhaps you want to edit data in a cue without recalling the cue to the console. The
easiest way of doing this is through the Edit cursor, displaying Cue data in different
views in which the desired data can be edited (see

4.3.2 The Edit Cursor

).

If you are working with the cursors locked, it will still be possible to look at the cue
data using the Edit menu function. This function provides a dialogue box with a list of
all the cues in the show, from which you can select the one to edit. Having made your
choice, the Active View will show the applicable data from the cue and “separate” it
from the actual show, thus enabling you to perform the editing. The view is recon-
nected to the current cue as soon as a cue recall function is executed.

NOTE: It is important to remember, that the Edit-menu reflects what View you are in,
i.e. different views have different menu options.
