3.7.5 THE FILEBIN

You can drag image, .cg or .TXT file icons right onto the Canvas directly from this Filebin.
(Loading a .CG file in this manner replaces the current project.)

Figure 41

Above the file window is a menu with navigation and file management buttons at left, and a file
icon preference menu at right. More detail on the various features of the Filebin can be found in
Chapter 5, Live Production and File Management.

3.7.6 THE LAYERS TAB

The Layers tab provides a convenient way to modify the depth of various text and CG objects on
the Canvas, as well align objects relative to one another.

At times the Canvas can become rather cluttered, making it tricky to select text lines or objects
directly by clicking. The final tab provides a convenient alternative. Each item in your current
page is represented by an individual line in the Layers panel.
