How do I keep a warning before exiting with outputs running?
The active-output warning preference is saved.
Before you start
Open the intended collection/layout and prepare a safe rehearsal. Have the device, media or receiving service required by the task available.
Where to find it
See Advanced settings and shortcut focus for the exact controls and navigation.
Steps
- Open File > Settings > System > Advanced.
- Enable Show active outputs warning on exit.
- Save and review the separate ordinary-exit confirmation choice in General.
Check the result
The active-output warning preference is saved.
Helpful information
Do not close a real live show merely to test the preference. Ordinary exit confirmation is a separate option.
If something is wrong
If the wrong confirmation appears, check both Advanced and General exit preferences.
