Colors and font styles have special meaning:
▪
Generally, text shown as yellow and italicized is not meant to be read aloud.
For example, in the image above, the first line (“Pre
-
show setup”) is used to issue a
command to TriCaster to place Black on output before the show begins. The line has
Word’s
Subtitle
style applied to it, indicating it is not intended to be read aloud. Live
Story shows this in yellow italics.
You’ll notice, though that the word “setup” is blue in the script pane, despite also being
in
Subtitle
style in the document. This is because the command we inserted to cause
black to be shown on output is in a comment applied to this word in the document.
Blue identifies commented text in the document, and comments can be used to issue
commands (we’ll discuss all of this in more depth shortly).
Hint: Move the mouse pointer over blue text in the script pane to see a tooltip showing
how Live Story Creator has interpreted your comment.
Notice that the show’s title (“Springdale Morning Mic”) is displayed in yellow, too.
Live Story recognized this is as the SHOW TITLE because the
Title
style is applied to
this text it in the document.
▪
Document styles can trigger corresponding actions, too. For example, the
Title
style
can automatically display a specially prepared LiveGraphic™ animation to introduce
your show
–
all without any manual intervention.
Note: The SHOW TITLE animations require the latest LiveGraphics content to be installed.
The Broadcast templates in the updated content include a special Show Open preset
specially prepared for this purpose.

In similar fashion, the document style
Heading 3
denotes a CUE, used to introduce
someone who will be speaking next. CUEs are show in inverted color, black text on a
white background (Figure 300).
