heads.

Preload
The Preload function allows execute window items to be selected before the change is applied. Press the PRELOAD soft button
to start selecting/deselecting items. MagicQ will show the items selected/deselected but will not apply them until the PRELOAD
GO soft button is pressed. The Busking Rate Master can be used in conjunction with this feature to allow all the items to fade at
the same time.

Wallpaper
It is possible to set a background wallpaper using the SET WALLPAPER soft button. The wallpaper should be a bmp or jpeg of
the size set by the WIN SIZE button. For MagicQ consoles the internal touch screen is 800x600 resolution.
Use SHIFT + CLR WALLPAPER to remove the wallpaper.
