Some workspace windows have option
settings or commands associated with
them. If the Touch Wing is connected,
these are positioned in the “context
buttons” area on the right of the Touch
Wing as shown in the picture above. If
the Touch Wing is not connected, a
drop down context menu is available at
the top right of each window.
Selecting and positioning
workspace windows
You select which workspace windows
you want to see using the [Open
Workspace Window] menu command
on the root menu, or by pressing the Window Selection buttons on
the Touch Wing just below the screen.
You can change the positions and sizes of the windows by using
[Window Options] on the View menu. The Touch Wing also has
pushbuttons for these functions. [Min or Max] swaps the active
window between full screen and quarter size. [Size and Position]
moves the active window around the possible positions. [Select
Window] gives you a list of windows to choose the active one, or on
the Touch Wing you can make a window active by touching its header
bar.
You can move the active window between the Touch Wing and the
external VDU monitor by pressing View then [Window Options] then
[Move Screen], or for the Touch Wing hold down the Avo button (on
the main console) and press the Size/Position button.
If a window shown on the VDU contains touch buttons, you can click
them using the mouse trackpad on the keyboard.
The function buttons (F1-F12) on the QWERTY keyboard can be used
to select and move workspace windows. See the list in section
11.1.2
on page
113.
Saving workspaces
You can save different workspace setups to the Workspaces touch
buttons on the Touch Wing or to grey handle buttons on the console.
This is done by pressing View then [Record Workspace], then
touching one of the Workspaces buttons or pressing a grey button.
This allows you to reconfigure the workspace at the touch of a button.
Workspaces are saved with the show.
Setting up and recording workspaces is described in more detail in
section
11.1 on page 113.
Quick record
Some windows – Groups, Workspaces, Playbacks, and all the Palette
windows - have a Quick Record function. Set up what
you want to record, then touch or click the button once.
The button will light up red with a + sign. At this point
you can enter a legend. Touch or click again to store the
item.
The Quick Record function can be disabled using Key Profiles (see
section
11.2.1 on page 117).
