Te xt Overlay
The text overlay also includes special codes to display dynamic information. These special
codes are as follow:
x %d Display the date and time (hh:mm:ss) in local time.
x %dz Display the date and time (hh:mm:ss) in UTC time.
x %t Display the time (hh:mm:ss) in local time.
x %tz Display the time (hh:mm:ss) in UTC time.
x %h Display the camera heading (short). Ex: N, W, SE, NW.
x %H Display the camera heading (long). Ex: NORTH, WEST, SOUTH EAST.
x %ht1 - %ht9 Display the camera heading (short) for 1 to 9 seconds when the camera
moves.
x %Ht1 - %Ht9 Display the camera heading (long) for 1 to 9 seconds when the camera
moves.
x %pt1 - %pt9 Display the camera azimuth and elevation for 1 to 9 seconds when the
camera moves. Ex: AZ 280.72 EL 12.98
To use a special code, simply type the code in the String Text field instead of normal text to be
displayed. When using a special code, the special code must be the only text displayed on that
line. Should extra text appear on that line (ex: « Heading %H »), the special code will not be
recognised and the text will appear as standard, static text.
