But perhaps you to make some changes. In Figure 328

, we have edited the Comment command to read “PiP

Football Star large top right”. Since we defined the posi

tion of the overlay, and specified a size, we achieved

a more pleasing result.

The

Comment command

“title” provides another example

of default operation. Add

the simple entry “title

brackets lower third”

to a comment. LiveStory evaluates the comment when the

eyeline

indicator reaches it,

and the predetermined defaults are used so you may not even need to add any more detail. The designated
title page (Brackets Lower Third) is automatically i) loaded into a Buffer, ii) assigned to a DSK, iii) faded on,
iv) held briefly, and then v) faded off).

In this example, you might kick things up just a bit by changing the effect used to introduce the title page.
The

Comment command

“Show Title brackets lower third Edge LtoR(H)” works quite nicely for this purpose.

Hint: You might want a title to remain in view longer than the default time. T

o do this, add the word “hold”

to the command you use to display the title. Then insert a new comment into your script at the point where
you want to remove the title from view and

enter the command “title off”.

Try different things

you can change effect speed (Fast, Medium, Slow), specify the DSK to use, and so on.

We can’t provide an exhaustive listing of

every possible command and combination of options,

but we’ll

identify the main TriCaster features LiveStory currently supports and give some examples and a few
alternatives that work just as well. The best way to learn is to just try typing in what you want to happen!
