4.12 Importing and Exporting Cuelist Data
This section covers which types of cuelist data can be imported/exported and the file formats
supported for each.
4.12.1 Exporting Cuelist Data to an XML File

1. List → Ope n : opens list directory window.
2. Press the Cu elist Exp ort button located at the top of the list directory window.
3. Select a file location for export, give the file a name, and press okay.
4. Once the export is complete a dialogue box will appear confirming export is complete.
Press okay.
4.12.2 Importing Cuelist Data from an XML File
WARNING: Importing cuelist data into a show is an "all or none" process and is done on a
replacement basis. All cuelist data written in the imported XML document will be included in
the import and will overwrite the data in the show file with the data supplied in the XML
document. However, XML data does not modify, delete, or alter fixture programming data in
the show file. XML import only adds/modifies non-look data such as cuelist and cue names.
To import an XML file containing cuelist data into a show:
1. List → Ope n : opens list directory window.
2. Press the Cu elist Import button located at the top of the list directory window.
3. Select an XML file to import and press okay.
4. If the import process is successful a dialogue box will appear confirming import is
complete. Press okay.
5. If non-conforming data or markup errors are detected the XML import WILL NOT
complete and an error dialogue box will appear. Press the details button on the error to
see more information about the errors detected in the XML document. Make note of the
errors mentioned in the dialogue box, make the necessary adjustments to the XML
document in a separate XML editor on your PC, save the file, and then re-attempt to
import into Hog 4 OS.
