You can also right-click on a color well, and (keeping the mouse button depressed) drag the
mouse to any other part of the screen. The mouse pointer becomes an eyedropper, ready to
pick up the color beneath it when you finally release it.

It is helpful to know that the color well updates in realtime as you drag, allowing you to preview
the result before committing to it. You can use this ability to select a color from one of
TriCaster’s video monitors, permitting an exact match to subject matter in a clip.

Hint: One of the principal uses of these backgrounds is to provide color behind text, keyed images,
or for Effects.

TriCaster dramatically simplifies the ability to input live cameras into your production. All
connected cameras (and other sources as well) can be set up and modified in a number of very
useful ways. This permits them to be configured just as you wish when you need to display
them.
