GRAPHICS

An offline variant of LiveText

™, NewTek’s standalone titling and CG

application, is provided. This version

cannot be accessed during live production, but lets you author title pages with text entries and images that

can

be updated while live. These pages are displayed from

Media Players

or

Buffers

during live production.

FIGURE 45

Selecting the

Graphics

icon displays a number of related items on the right-hand side of the

Session Page

.

FIGURE 46

When you first enter a new session, no LiveText projects are listed in the area under

Project Name

. After you

create one or more projects, the name(s) will appear here and, as you would expect, you can re-open the
project by clicking its name.

Note: New LiveText projects, by default, are stored inside a folder named for the session, for example, you
might find a project at D:\LIVETEXT PROJECTS\sessionname\projectname.cg.

LiveText’s internal

File

menu and

Save As

functions default to the same location. However, it is possible to

use

File>Save As

to store a project in another location outside the session structure.

Be aware that projects stored outside the session structure are not shown in the project list on the

Sessions

Page

. To re-

open them, you’ll nee

d to navigate to the project file using

File>Open

in LiveText.

Note: Similarly, external projects will not be backed up by the Backup Session function (or be deleted by the
Delete Session function)
