Video generator settings for this item

This window is displayed when a pattern is ‘drag and dropped’ from the Generator window into the Playlist window. The window can also be accessed for existing playlist items by double-clicking on the item, or by selecting the item then taking the Selected pattern properties option from the ‘Pattern’ menu or clicking on the ‘Selected pattern properties’ icon. Alternatively, the Edit context menu entry may be used to edit an item (selected or otherwise).

The window allows the user to specify in frames or seconds (for the current video-standard) how long the item should be displayed. For frame, patterns, the same frame will be played out for the specified duration. Sequences however can be

played forwards or backwards in a loop for the entire duration.

The Use Current button can be used to set the video settings from the current Engineering Settings.

The video generator settings work in the same way as the normal video generator settings found in the Engineering Settings control window.

Item order

Playlist items can be ordered (moved up and down the list) either by using the up/down arrow toolbar icons or by using the Move selected pattern down/Move selected pattern up menu items in the main ‘Pattern’ menu.

These actions will only affect the selected item. You can also move an item up or down the list by using the Move up and Move down context menu items; these will move any item up or down the list (selected or otherwise).

Delete item

To delete an item in the playlist, either click on the Cross-shaped toolbar icon, take the Remove selected pattern option included in the ‘Pattern’ menu, or press the Delete key. Note: These actions will only affect the selected item. The context menu Remove item may also be used to delete an item (selected or otherwise).
