FILE PANE

Icons appear in the File Pane for content inside the sub-heading selected in the Locations List. (Files are grouped
under dividers named for sub-folders.)

FILE FILTERS

The File Pane is automatically filtered to show only relevant content. For example, when selecting LiveSets, the
browser only shows LiveSet files (.vsfx). An editable filter appears above the File Pane. Only files matching
criteria you enter are shown. For example, if you enter “wav”, the File Pane would display any file with the
filename extension “.wav” (WAVE audio file format), but also “wavingman.jpg” or “lightwave_render.avi”.

CONTEXT MENUS

Right-click a Location listed under My Media Locations to show a context menu with just one item in it. Remove
de-lists the location (but does not delete the folder and its contents from the hard drive).

Note: this menu is exclusively for use in the “My Media Location” section, and is not available for other headings
in the Location List.

Right-click a file icon to open a menu providing Rename and Delete options (Delete really does remove content
from your hard drive).

3.5.4 TITLE PAGES

TriCaster™ title pages can be used in any of the Media Players (other than Sound, of
course)
. Media Players can also display bitmap files exported from third-party graphics
applications. However, TriCaster’s native title pages can be edited, even while displayed
live (not possible with a simple bitmap image).

Title page icons display a configuration (gear) button when you move the mouse over
them. Click this button or select Edit Title in the context menu to open the Title Page Editor.
When you move the mouse over text in the Title Page Editor, a white bounding-box appears.
Click to select the text object for editing. An edit field opens to let you modify the text. Press Enter or click
outside the box to complete the editing operation.
