Customizing Component Objects
Component Objects can be customized in several ways. First, when using the Object Toolbar to
place components into the Layout, certain components will present the user with a pop-up
‘Initialization Properties’ window of configuration options. Several pre-defined configuration
(input/output) options may be available for the component, as well as a 'custom' selection that
allows the user to more specifically configure the component. Some components (such as Auto
Mixers) allow activation of additional features (such as Logic Inputs & Direct Outputs). Multiple
channels of Level, Invert, & Mute may be 'ganged' onto a single control. Multi-channel Invert and
Mute Buttons may be set for 'horizontal alignment' and/or 'no labeling' when minimized as a user
control. The configuration of certain components can be further edited, even after they have been
placed in the Layout and the design has been compiled (see
Placing Component Objects ). Line
Objects (wires) can have identifying text added (see Line Property Sheet ).
Actual component settings can be customized through Control Dialog Boxes (see Component
Object Properties ). Control Dialog Boxes for certain Combiners , Dynamics , Controls , Meters , &
Telephone Interface components can be minimized to create customized control surfaces (room
combiners, meters, level controls, mute buttons, preset buttons, telephone dialers, etc.). These
control surfaces can then be made user accessible, with other system components hidden on
Layers which are invisible to the user, and which are Password protected. (See Software User
Interface .)
Individual or multiple Component Objects can be customized, connected, and then saved as new
Component Objects in the
Processing Library . This can be done by selecting the desired
object(s) in the Layout, then pressing the Alt key and dragging the object(s) into an appropriate
category in the Processing Library. The Alt key can also be used to drag object(s) between
design (.DAP) files, and to copy objects within the same Layout. Right-clicking over objects (to
Copy) and then right-clicking over a Processing Library category (to Paste), can also be used.
