VertigoXG Plugin: Adding XG Events to a Schedule
Clicking the A DD P AGE button on the VertigoXG Palette opens the VertigoXG Viewer
(figure 3-2 ), which has two views: Browse and Edit.
• Browse view allows you to browse and/or search for templates, pages and/or scenes
that currently exist on a specified Xmedia Server. See
“Browsing or searching for
templates, pages or scenes on an Xmedia Server” on page 3-5 for more information.
• Edit view allows you to create a new page based on a template or open an existing
page or scene for editing. You can then save the page or edited scene to the Xmedia
Server and add the page/scene to the VertigoXG Palette’s selection pane so that it can
be added to the iTX schedule as an XG graphics event.

Connecting the VertigoXG Viewer to the Xmedia Server
The first time the VertigoXG Viewer is opened, you must set the IP address of the Xmedia
Server in the H
OSTNAME /IP field of the Settings window (figure 3-3 ). This allows the
VertigoXG Viewer to access the templates, pages and scenes of a particular Xmedia Server
device, as well as save new pages and scenes to the Xmedia Server.
