3.2 Repeating Menu Patterns
3.2.1 Source/Input Selection
In the “Source/Input” dialog, all KAIROS
sources (including inputs) are listed in groups
and are available for designation as source
selections for Buses, Multi-Viewer windows,
etc. Clips and Stills are available after loading
to RAM.
Single click on a source changes the cursor
focus to the selected source, but the change
will only happen after you click “OK” in lower
right corner of the pop-up window to confirm
the changes and close the window. Double-
click on a source to set the focus and instantly
change the source without closing the
window. The “Cancel” button opens a new
dialog (Picture 3.2.1.2)
where the user can
choose to “Save,” “Discard,” or “Cancel” the
changes.
Note:
Groups of sources can contain subdirectories!
This dialog will only open if a Source selection changes.
If no change is made to the Source before the “Cancel”
button is clicked, the window will close immediately.
Clicking the “Cancel” button after changing a source
(Picture 3.2.1.1 on previous page) will open this dialog
(Picture 3.2.1.2). Click “Save” to use the new source and
close this dialog box as well as the “Source Select”
window.
Pressing “Discard” will revert all source changes and close both this dialog box and the “Source Select”
window. “Cancel” (in Picture 3.2.1.2) will close this dialog box without any changes and drop back to the
“Source Select” window (Picture 3.2.1.1 on previous page).
The Source Select window
(Picture 3.2.1.1) can be
opened with a right mouse
click on any layer in the
“Layers” window and clicking
on Select Source (Picture
3.2.1.3). It can also be
opened by clicking on
,
the buttons in “Parameter
View” of “Layer Settings.”
The “Source Select” window
will also open when selecting
sources for Aux Buses and
Multi-Viewer panes.
3.2.2 Source Options
Here, the operator can determine which individual sources are available per Bus.
Note:
The available sources can be changed on a Scene-by-Scene and/or Bus-by-Bus basis!
