Enabling Lock Mouse to Primary Monitor prevents the mouse from traveling into the external
Multiview display.

Enable Autoplay Out on M/Es – You may find it useful to enable Autoplay’s ‘transition-out when
nearing the end of play’ feature for M/E’s (Mix mode). By default, this option is off.

SECTION 7.3

MACROS

Macros are an extremely important TriCaster feature. Sufficiently so, in fact, that not only have we given
them a place of their own in the User Guide (Chapter 17), but they are also discussed in greatly expanded
detail in the accompanying Automation and Integration Guide.

SECTION 7.4

WORKSPACES

The Workspaces menu opens when clicked to reveal two groups labeled Interface and Multiview. These
control the monitor viewport layouts shown on the Live Desktop and external Multiview displays.

Workspace features are discussed in Section 10.1 under the heading Interface and Multiview.

SECTION 7.5

INFORMATION PANEL

An information display in the Live Desktop titlebar provides a number of useful items. Displayed information
includes:

(Session Name)

(Session format)

Status message display

FIGURE 58

The Status message area sits next to the session information display, but is hidden when no message is
shown. When TriCaster needs to inform you regarding system events or conditions, text messages
replace the normal information display. Status messages may pertain to operations or system
conditions; they may be benign, as in *Figure 58, or cautionary.

* A brief initialization is required following system startup for DDR video playback to stabilize.

During this brief ‘warm-up’ period, an initialization countdown appears in the Status message
display
...


The display automatically clears itself a few moments later so as not to pose an unnecessary distraction.
