Copying
You can copy the content of an ME or keyer to
another ME or keyer.
ME Copy
You can copy the entire contents of an ME,
MiniME ™ , or Canvas to another ME, MiniME ™ ,
or Canvas. The entire contents of the destination
is replaced with the contents of the source.
When you copy an ME, the switcher tries to
assign resources to the destination ME to match
the source ME. If these resources are not
available, the switcher may need to steal
resources.

assign resources to the destination key to match
the source key. If these resources are not

Key Swap
You can swap the entire contents of any two

between keyers. This allows you to change the
apparent key priority, or layering, of the keys
in the video output. For example, key 3 appears
over key 2. If you perform a swap between key
3 and key 2, it appears as if key 2 is now over
key 3.
