Your Transition Delegate buttons should resemble Figure 49, with three delegates multi-selected.
Note also that the Take button for DSK 1 is illuminated in Figure 49, and the progress gauge
beneath the Delegate button likewise shows that DSK 1 is fully displayed.
LOOK AHEAD PREVIEW
Back in Section 4.3.4 we promised to spend some time on the Look Ahead Preview monitor, and
the time has finally arrived for us to do so together.

1. Cast your eyes over the Preview and Program monitors; consider what you see there,
and how it relates to the Transition Delegate controls:
a. The Program monitor shows DSK 1, currently assigned to Title, over the current
BKGD layer. The latter, at the moment, is the Program row selection.
b. The Preview monitor shows DSK 2, assigned to Still, overlaid on the current
Preview row selection.
The Look Ahead Preview monitor (or simply, Preview) is showing us the composition that will
result if a Take or Transition operation is performed – a look into the future, if you will.
