Expand the Name/Comment group in the Input tab of the Input
Configuration pane, by clicking the twirl-down triangle at left.
This group contains several editable text fields, including Video
(the label shown under monitors), a shorter Switcher Button
label, and the longer Comment field.
Hint: The Comment entry is more than just memory aid.
NewTek’s DataLink feature can automatically update title pages
as inputs are displayed by drawing on the information you enter
here.
6.4.2 WORKSPACES
Various layouts and custom monitoring options for the Live Desktop and Multiviews are provided in the
Workspace menu.
When one or more Multiviews monitor is in use, Workspace preset options can be combined with great
flexibility, letting you see what you want to see where you want to see it.
It’s easy to set up complementary displays. Each connected monitor, including the Live Desktop screen
(listed in the Workspaces menu as Multiview 1 ) has four unique presets, labeled A-D. (Figure 51 displays
presets A-B only due to having additional monitors connected). You can load a different viewport layout
into each of these presets, and recall them easily using this menu, or perhaps using Macros assigned to
keystrokes.
In addition, each individual viewport can be assigned to any Switcher input source or output using its
own context menu. So, for example, even if you initially use Load Default to assign identical viewport
layouts to preset A and preset B for a given screen, you can configure each viewport differently in the
two presets.
Switching between presets, then, will allow you to view different sources. Even the overlays (such as
Safe Area display) for each viewport are fully independent.
Hint: See Section 6.4.3, The App Desktop, for information on this special, powerful Workspace option.
