Like the

Title Style

, CUEs can also automatically trigger TriCaster operations. For

example, if a

Switcher

input name matches a name

in the CUE, that source will be placed on output, and
a title identifying the newly introduced talent will be
shown. (After a few moments, the title is
automatically removed.)

Text meant to be read aloud is shown in a large
white typeface.

o

Live

Story’s operating controls are located in a small panel just

right of the script pane (Figure 301).

This

Control Panel

is dominated by a vertical

Speed

control. You

can modify the scroll rate during playback or traverse the script
backward or forward by dragging the

Speed

bar up or down.

Transport controls below the

Speed

bar include

Stop

and

Play

, as well as

Previous

and

Next

Segment

buttons.

Hint: Divide your show into different segments identified by applying the Heading 2 style to lines in
your .docx file.

Click the familiar gear gadget in the upper-right corner of the

Control Panel

to open

Live

Story’s configuration

panel (Figure 302).

The two switches in the

Automation

Triggers

toggle automation in response to

Comments

or

Headings

(styles) applied in

the .docx document.

When both switches are off, Live Story
does not process automation commands,
and is operates as a simple teleprompter.

Font controls let you adjust text display
for legibility when you are using an
external teleprompter device.

The

Flip

switches in the

Image

group

likewise allow you to conform the
teleprompter output to match your local
devices, while the margin sliders let you
move text confine teleprompter output to
best suit your preference.
