Tip
A quick way to test the text layer is to LOCATE it. This sets all parameters back to default. Then select the text file you want,
then alter other parameters to get the desired effect.
3.7 No Live Preview
If MagicQ is not showing live previews from MagicHD the most common cause is the network configuration on the MagicHD
machine. Previews are sent by multicast so there must be a network route from MagicHD to MagicQ for the network packets to
reach the console.
The simplest way to fix this problem is to add a default route, on the MagicHD machine, that uses the ethernet connection to
MagicQ. Instructions for showing and setting network routes are highly OS specific so you are advised to search the internet for
details.
