In contrast with the Live Desktop, your TriCaster CS adjusts position attributes M/E
video layers using a single set of Positioner tools governed by Delegate controls (see
Section 22.4.7).

ELEGATE
Your TriCaster CS provides an M/E DELEGATE button group to govern which M/E(s)
are affected by operations. Selected DELEGATE buttons are illuminated and,
conveniently, multiple selections are supported. When using a 460 CS with an 8-
input TriCaster, add SHIFT with a selection to delegate

PVW
Enabling the FOLLOW PVW button (M/E DELEGATE group) forces the DELEGATE
selection to track the Switcher's PVW row selection. This can be very valuable, as it
automatically ensures that adjustments you make to settings will affect the M/E that
you plan to display next.

Just as in the Live Desktop, the Overlay row selection determines the source for the
Overlay layer of an M/E. However, since the control surface supports selection of
multiple M/Es simultaneously, operations can affect more than one M/E at a time.

Likewise, the A (Input A) and B (Input B) row selections determine the sources for
those layers for delegated M/Es. All three rows provide buttons for all camera
inputs, Net 1, Net 2, all Media Players (excluding Sound), Virtual Buffer, Black
(TriCaster 860 CS only) and FX.
Hint: Punching FX is a quick way to assign the row to the Green (FX) switcher row group.
