Speed Drop-down List Box
Selects the speed of blinking or text flow. This is effective only when the "Blink," "Scroll," or "Scroll in" text type is selected.
You can also enter a value in the text box on the right.
The unit is "fields/blinking" for blinking, "pixels/field" for scroll, and "fields" (displaying duration) for scroll in.
Hint
1 field is half of 1 frame duration. It is approximately 1/60 of a second in the case of NTSC, and 1/50 of a second in the case of PAL.
You can save the value by entering the desired name in the drop-down list box and clicking the Save button (up to 30 settings). The Delete button deletes the selected setting.
When you specify a value that is not pre-defined and do not save it, the system automatically attempts to save the value with the name "User defined." A confirmation message appears when you click [OK] in the Properties dialog box. Click [Yes] to specify that value.
Number Text Box and Loop Check Box
Specifies the number of times an item of text displays. Checking the Loop check box repeats text display during the event.
Position Drop-down List Box
Selects the text position. You can also enter a coordinate (unit: pixels, the top left corner of the screen is (0,0).) in the text boxes for the position where you want the upperleft corner of the "constant" or "blink" text to be, and a Y coordinate for the "scroll" or "scroll in" text. You can save the coordinates by entering a name in the Position drop-down list box and clicking the Save button (up to 30 settings). The Delete button deletes the selected setting.
When you specify a coordinate that is not pre-defined and do not save it, the system automatically attempts to save the coordinate with the name "User defined." A confirmation message appears when you click [OK] in the Properties dialog box. Click [Yes] to specify that coordinate.
Note
•The settings for the number and position will be used with urgent text playout only. Normally, specify the number and position of each text event on the playlist.
•If you selected the "over-scan" display type upon group setting, the system adjusts the pre-defined positions, such as "Upper" and "Lower," so that the text can be correctly displayed on over-scan displays.
Note that if you use both over-scan and under-scan displays in a single network player group, text may not displayed at the expected position on some of the displays.
•The user-defined position settings saved here (up to 30 settings) are shared with the Text Position drop-down list box in the Display Setup dialog box displayed for editing playlists. You are not allowed to specify more than one user setting with the same coordinate. For a "scroll" or "scroll in" text, the X coordinate, even if you specify a user setting with an X coordinate setting that is not "0," will be ignored.
