WinCueProNews Script Editor

In this Chapter you will learn how the script editor works. The Script Editor is used to create the prompting

text and is similar to many Windows based editors. Therefore, if you have used Windows based word

processors commands will be familiar. At the end of this chapter you will be able to set read rates, fonts,

colours and styles to suit individual presenters, and also change the editors layout to suit the way you

work. This chapter applies to all versions of WinCueProNews.

5 The Script Editor

5.1

The Script Editor Window

The Script editor is used to create the scripts. The Script Editor window has three main

features.

5.1.1 The Script Window

The script is created in this window and this represents what will be seen when

WinCueProNews is in the prompt mode. The text is written white on a black background.

WinCueProNews supports both mouse and keyboard controls. A summary of the shortcut

keyboard controls is shown below. These keystrokes will help you to move around the editor

quickly. The cursor can be moved anywhere in the script using the cursor keys or the mouse.

Text can be deleted using the Backspace and delete keys or by highlighting the desired text

and pressing the delete key.
