Hotspots are configured in the configuration panels for individual inputs. Double-
click the viewport for a camera input to open this dialog, and click the LiveMatte tab.
The lower portion of this tab contains the Hotspots control group. Notice that
Hotspots can be globally enabled or disabled for the session using the switch in the
group header.
Hotspots are color-coded, and their respective colors are used to draw the Hotspot
overlay boxes on your viewports when the Hotspot Markers overlay is enabled for a
corresponding monitor viewport (see Section 10.1.1).
The Scale and Position buttons allow you to re-size and place the ‘trigger zone’ for
each Hotspot accurately.
The Event button for each Hotspot, marked by a capital “E”, opens the Event Triggers
dialog. This is where you will assign macros that will be triggered when something
moves into (On Screen) or out of (Off Screen) the otherwise transparent area defined
by that Hotspot.
Hint: Use the Overlay option Flip View Horizontal to let talent see for exactly where their
marks are on the screen – See Section 10.1.1.
SECTION 17.5 EDIT A MACRO
Often you will wish to modify values assigned to the various
steps in an existing macro, rather than re-recording it; or
perhaps you want to experiment with other possibilities.
Click the Edit button (Figure 294) to open the Macro Editor
for the currently selected macro.
This deceptively simple editor presents the shortcut
sequence your macro contains, along with all of its values in
a simple to comprehend ‘spreadsheet-style’ interface. Simply click a cell to edit the
current entry.
Right-clicking opens the shortcut row menu. When done, click the Apply button (or
Cancel to close the editor without saving your changes).
