Chapter 7 Editing Concert Layouts
You can use three types of screen controls in a MainStage layout: panel controls, shelf
controls, and grouped controls. In the Screen Controls Palette, each type has its own
tab (the Panel Controls, Shelf Controls, and Grouped Controls tabs). Panel controls
occupy a two-dimensional space, while shelf controls appear in three dimensions on an
adjustable shelf.
Adding Screen Controls
If a concert you create from a template does not include screen controls for all the
hardware controls you want to use, you can add screen controls to the workspace. You
can also add screen controls to display patch, parameter, and system information.

Add a screen control:

it to occupy in the workspace. As you drag the screen control in the workspace,
alignment guides appear, making it easier to align the screen control with other items
in the workspace.
