The icon labeled Add-Ons on the Home Page provides access to these tools. When you select it,
links are displayed for installed software applications, allowing you to launch them. (For
example, Figure 100 shows a link to the Virtual Set Editor™ demo, as well as the Animation Store
Creator
utility included with TriCaster.)

5.3 THE SESSION PAGE

Opening a session from the Home Page (whether using Open or New) takes
you to the Session Page, providing a new set of selections on the icon ring.

The name of the current session is shown in the top-left corner of the
screen. The current session is displayed in the form “Home/session name”.

If you wish to leave the current session and return to the Home Page, you
can click the large Back Arrow displayed beneath the session name, or the

word “Home” in the session name label.

Initially, the icon ring in the Session Page offers four selections. These are discussed next.
