Closing an AP NewsCentre Runorder on WinCue
Close a runorder by left-clicking on the lower of the two 'X's in the top-right of the screen, or
clicking on 'Close' under the 'File' menu.
A message box will appear if you are currently prompting the runorder. It will ask if you are
sure that you want to close it, select 'Yes' if you are sure.

3.1.5 Prompting an AP NewsCentre Runorder on WinCue
NOTE: An AP NewsCentre Runorder should be prompted from start to finish in listed
order (i.e. The prompt operator is not required to jump back and forth within a
runorder. The runorder should be re-ordered using AP NewsCentre.)
SAFE PRACTICE: Due to the way in which AP NewsCentre updates the prompter
automatically it is necessary that if the prompting between two stories is not
continuous (e.g. The prompt is stopped at the end of a story while a video clip is
played (VT)) the prompt operator does not pre-empt the gallery by prompting into what
they believe to be the next story to be prompted.
3.1.6 Information displayed on the WinCue runorder:
A yellow bar on the runorder indicates which story you are currently prompting, the 'prompt
bar'.
A black bar on the runorder indicates which story you have 'selected'. This can be done by
left-clicking on with the mouse, this black bar can be ignored.
Double left-click on a story to view the text of the story, use the far-right scroll bar to view
more of the story.
