Every window of the Studio besides the main one, and what their toolbars show: Show Manager, Preview, Program, Multiview, Audio Routing, Script, Remote Guests, Spelvin, Warnings, Stream Deck Layout, Lower Third Builder and Settings.
Besides the main window, each part of the Studio that needs room opens in a window of its own. Most are in the Window menu with a shortcut; the ones you use during a show also have a key in the toolbar’s Windows group. Those keys say SHOW while the window is closed and HIDE while it is open.
A window’s toolbar
Section titled “A window’s toolbar”Every window’s toolbar is drawn as the console’s own keys and displays, the same as the main window’s, so a key reads the same wherever it is:
| Item | Looks like | For example |
|---|---|---|
| Key | a dark key with its words; a chevron after them when a press opens a menu | Suggest Setup Changes in the Script window, Add Bus in Audio Routing |
| Lit key | lit white, its word dark on it, while it is on | Grid, Guides, Safe Zones and Snap in the Preview window |
| Held key | lit amber only while you hold it | Hold to Compare in an audio step’s window |
| Key group | keys side by side with a lamp above each; the lamp of the chosen one lights | the two tabs of the Show Manager, the filter in Warnings |
| Display | a value on a small dark display, its name in small capitals beside it; a chevron when a press opens the choices | the venue in Audio Routing, a step’s preset |
| Search display | a display you type in; ⌘F puts the cursor in it | Filter in the Show Manager, the search in Warnings |
A key acts when you release it over the key; let go elsewhere and nothing happens. A key that cannot act now is dimmed. The bars inside windows, such as Remote Guests’ and Stream Deck Layout’s, and the type filters at the top of the main window’s sources sidebar, are lit keys and key groups too. The main window’s Hide Sidebar, Appearance and Inspector stay the Mac’s own symbols, with a rounded rectangle under the pointer.
