How do I show a title when a scene goes on air?

The title appears when the intended scene becomes Program.

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 Use scene and source triggers for the exact controls and navigation.

Steps

  1. Create the title source in the intended scene.
  2. Open File > Triggers, choose the scene and Add a rule using Program Active.
  3. Use Manage Actions > Add Action > Show Source and select the title.
  4. Enable the rule and rehearse taking that scene to Program.

Check the result

The title appears when the intended scene becomes Program.

Helpful information

Preview Active follows preparation and is a different event.

If something is wrong

Check the scene owner, enabled state and exact source target if the title appears at the wrong time.
