The
Elements
tab offers a variety of pre-selected PiP elements with borders, labels, alarms, bargraphs,
clocks and timers.
Themes
The exact graphic style used for these elements varies according to the
System Theme
active on a
multiviewer. The
System Theme
is the overall style used by the multiviewer when it renders each
individual PIP element.
To understand how to insert and configure tallies, labels, UMDs, audio panels, bargraphs and other
special graphic elements such as Canvas objects, its necessary to understand how the panels that
contain these objects dock together in the
PiP Container
.
The PiP Container, Panels, and Elements
The PiP Container encompasses all the elements that a PiP contains including the main panel and any
audio panels or status panel in it, quick menu access icons, the lower text and tally area and the video
area with its optional audio panels or canvas object. Audio and status panels can be positioned by drag-
n-drop in the border or over video.
The following illustration shows some of the panels, panel objects, video objects and PiP elements that
are used in a PiP.
The most basic component of a PiP Container is the
Main Panel
. It is the panel to which all other panels
dock.
