The Learn feature consists of one or more Learned Environments. Within each Learned
Environment you can create a Learned Script.
In a Learned Script you teach MXProDV about a series of transitions and edits you
want to include in a production. This is similar to using an Edit Decision List (EDL),
though not as flexible or powerful.
Once you activate the Learn feature, MXProDV remembers each step you go through
in preparing a production — including all transitions, input effects, and other
operations. You can play back this Learned Script to automatically perform all of the
steps and functions it contains.
See Chapter 11, Learn Mode, for complete information.

OMPOSE
Use Compose to create screen images made up of several differ-
ent graphic elements. For example, a composed screen might
show two still images (polar bears and Kong) placed atop solid
colored rectangles and a solid colored background. With a char-
acter generator (such as the Videonics Title Maker), you can also
add text elements to composed screens. See Chapter 9, Compose.
PIP

PIPs (Picture-In-Picture) let you combine images from separate
sources and place them on the screen at the same time in sepa-
rate windows (or, tiles). You have many options for arranging
the PIP windows on the screen or you can select the multiPIP
function (

). See Chapter 8, PIPs.
