The toolbar shown on the bottom of the Pool View provides quick access to useful functions, dependent on the type
of the Pool.
The Group, Preset and Cuelist Pool Items in general have 3 States: Empty, Not Selected and Selected. The Empty
state is indicated by a dark background color.
An existing Pool Item is indicated by a gray background color, with the number of the item in the top left corner on a
dark gray background. If a Pool Item is selected, a green bar below the dark gray header of the pool item is added.
Preset Pool items, in addition, show how many fixtures are applied to this preset (within the programmer).

Additionally, Cuelist Pool Items show the priority of the cuelist on the dark gray header and they have a status
indicator that shows the current cue (or, if the cuelist is not running, the cue that would be started) and status of the
cuelist.
Figure 23: Cuelist Pool Items
The background color of the status indicators visually describe the different cuelist states.
Fixture Pool and the Level View
About the Fixture Level View
The Fixture Pool or Fixture Level View is similar to the other Pools. However, there are two big differences: It only
shows fixtures that have been added to the show, instead of showing empty items - and - it provides an overview of
the fixture values that are being output at the moment.
