“Auto Follow On Prompt Item”

“Keep On Prompt Item Visible In List”, which forces the VGA status display to scroll down

with the prompter output.

Don’t select “Auto Jump to Editor on Speed Zero”, which is really only useful if you’re

prompting in a non-AvidNews environment and I figure could panic a prompter operator.

And, when all is done, click on the big OK, exit the Application and launch it again. Many WinCue

settings require a restart of the Application to take effect.

3.3 Prompting AvStar with WinCue

Selecting a Show for Prompting

If the queue selection window is not configured to open automatically as a user preference when

starting up the WinCue program, click on File Open Queue. This will bring up a dialog box

where you can select which show you want to prompt:

After you select the Show, you will be presented with a list of the queues underneath this show

directory. Select the RUNDOWN queue to download the stories in the show to the WinCue

prompter.
