6.3.8 Edit Field

The unique title field in the rundown simply identifies each individual story. The title field

should contain a one or two word description of the story. To do this click once with the right

mouse button on the story you wish to edit. Choose Edit Field from the menu. The title field

will now appear white indicating you can now edit. Make your changes and when you are

happy click on the left-hand mouse button or press enter.

If you have a three-button mouse it’s even simpler. Just click on the story you wish to edit with

the middle mouse button

To edit the field directly with a two button mouse press Ctrl and press the right hand button on

the mouse to edit the field directly.

6.3.9 Toggle Hold State

Toggle Hold State allows you place an item in the rundown, which will not be prompted and

will not be included in any timing calculations. This allows stories to be on standby. To do this

click once with the right mouse button on the line you wish to hold. A menu appears next to

the cursor. Select Toggle Hold State from this menu. The item selected turns

blue

The Prompt From Here command allows you to begin prompting from anywhere within the

rundown. To do this click once with the right mouse button on the line you wish to begin

prompting at. A menu appears next to the cursor and select Prompt From Here from this

menu. The rundown then goes into prompting mode and the item selected as the first turns

yellow.

Working with Multiple Rundowns

WinCueProNews will allow the user to have a large number of rundowns and Script Editor

windows open at the same time. However, to limit the confusion it is best to have only one

open at a time.

WinCueProNews provides a number of standard tools to help organise multiple rundown

windows. The rundown windows currently opened are displayed on the window bar.
