The Edit Cursor in the Cue Window (see

fig 4-4

), allows you to move through the

show and edit each cue as required. The cue that the edit cursor indicates is called
the Edit Cue. Use the keyboard arrow keys to move the edit cursor in the cue list. As
you do this, each cue will be displayed in the views available (see

fig 4-5

). Provided

the cursors are unlocked, the cue will not automatically be recalled to the console. If,
however, the cursors are locked, the cursor also serves as a Current Cue cursor and
consequently the cue will automatically be recalled to the console.

Recall the Edit cue to the console by pressing F3 (available in all View menus, see

3.2.6 Function keys

). Save the console data to the Edit cue by pressing F2 (only

available in Cue view).

The Current Cue cursor (see

fig 4-4

) indicates the cue that, most likely, represents

the current state of the console. This is the cue with the data that was most recently
sent to the console (F3 = Recall Cue) or saved from the console (F2 = Save Cue). If
console data changes, it will not reflect in the state of the Current Cue. The cursor
indication merely serves as a reminder of which cue last interacted with the console.
Use PageUp and PageDn to move up/down in the cue list.
