Using [Format]
Live / Blind has multiple formats. When first opened, it opens in its default view, which is the
Table View (on the next page)
. The default view can be set in the
Live and Blind Configuration
Menu (on page103)
. When the default format has been changed, those new settings will be
used whenever the display is changed back to that format.
Press [Format] to rotate through any available formats.
Live and Blind share formatting. When you change from one format to another format, you
are always working with the same format until you change it. The exception to this is
Spreadsheet (Blind Only) (on page100)
, which is only available in blind. If you are working in
blind spreadsheet, when you return to live you will be working with the table or summary
view, based on which one you were last using.
Summary View
The summary view displays the largest number of channels of any of the formats. This format
is best used to see large numbers of channels’ intensity data and / or parameter category data.
Individual parameters are not visible in this view.
FCB icons will appear at the bottom of the channel area for channels that have those
parameters patched to them. See
Indicators in the Live / Blind Display (on page100)
for more
information.
To collapse the summary view, hold down the [Params] key and press any parameter category
key. To collapse the summary view on Element 2, hold down [Data] and any of the parameter
category key in the parameter display (Focus, Color, Image, Shutter, or Form).
When the summary view has been collapsed to show only intensity data, you may include
focus, color, or beam data in the summary view by holding down the [Params] key and
pressing any parameter category key. This displays all categories again. On Element 2, you will
need to use [Data] .
