Guides
You can assign customizable guide overlays to three Guide buttons along the bottom of the
Studio Player. Fusion includes four guides to choose from, but you can add your own using the
XML Guide format and style information provided at the end of this chapter. You assign a
customizable guide to one of the three Guide buttons by right-clicking over a button and
selecting a guide from the list. To display the guide, click the assigned button.
Three toolbar Guide buttons enable
guide overlays in the viewer.
