Hint: Another selection in the Add Pages menu permits you to “Add Page to Templates List.” This
lets you store the currently highlighted pages as templates, for quick access and consistent styling
using templates of your own design.
9.2.2 PROJECT
The Project panel contains project and page file
management tools. Projects and (editable pages)
are stored as *.cg files. Clicking New clears the
current project, and opens a new blank one.
Load also clears the current project, normally
replacing it with one you have previously saved
as a .cg file.
Hint: You can change the file suffix filter in the file requester to show files ending in .txt, then
import long lists of textual data prepared in standard ASCII text format and saved as a .txt file.
This process is also detailed in Section 0, Import Text,
The Save button stores all pages of the current project at a location you choose using the File
Requester provided. Re-saving an existing project file occurs instantly. To save a new version of
such a file under a new name, click Save As.
EXPORT OPTIONS
The Export Page for LIVE and Export Project for LIVE functions convert the highlighted page or
project for application in your LIVE productions.
Exported CG pages can be employed as LiveSets from Input Setup, as Text Templates from the
LIVE Production Text module, or as images or animations from the DDR playlist. In the last two
cases, if the page(s) contain transparent areas, the transparency will be retained if you place
them over your program stream using Overlay.
Any Still (no motion) pages created by the Export functions are automatically inserted into the
list of templates available for the Text module (Text Page group), as well as being listed as
individual Shots in the LiveSet menu when you select CG Designer as the Scene.
