File Based Queues
In this section you can configure the appearance for all QMaster script files.
Simple Script File Defaults
This is used to set up the appearance of your QMaster script files.
Presenter Settings
There are two ways of adding presenters to a script.
On opening a script file you can add presenters by selecting Properties from the file menu. Any presenters created
or settings changed using this method are only available to that specific script file.
By adding Presenters using the Tools >> Options >> File Based Queues method any presenters or settings changed
here will apply to all QMaster files.
Although there are different ways to add presenters to a script the set-up for this is the same.
Presenters
Presenter's settings allow you to customise settings for individual presenters. The font, colour, style and read rate
can be allocated for individual presenters. These settings will be automatically applied to the script when the
presenter is selected.
There is always a DEFAULT presenter in QMaster that is used to set the default script file settings. For detailed
information about presenter profiles, refer to section 7.5.
General tab
If you find that your script font is too small then you can set the default font type here. The font style and size that
you set here will be used as the default for all of your scripts.
Simple Rundown File Defaults
This is used to set up the appearance of your QMaster rundowns. The options are similar to those of a simple script
file.
Presenter Settings
There are two ways of adding presenters to a script.
