This page is the signpost. One line per module: what it adds to the program, and where to read about it.
Everything else about them — their windows, their designers, their settings — lives in their own documentation, for the same reason their buttons live in their own module.
What each one adds
| Module | Adds |
|---|---|
| Songs | Song cues: a group with a cue per verse, its own song page and its own design. |
| People | Name plates (lower thirds): a cue with a name, a role and an organisation. |
| Subtitles | Subtitles over the picture, with their own design. |
| Presentations | Importing PowerPoint and pdf as a group with a cue per slide. |
| Video services | Cues that play from a particular video service, with the player that service needs. |
| Switcher control | Listening to a vision mixer and using it as a gate on the picture. |
| Content sources | Fetching songs, people or other material from a publisher, with the design that publisher intended. |
Which of these your installation has depends on what was installed — see your licence key.
What they change in this documentation
Two things in the base program only become useful with a module, and both are described here as mechanisms:
- The Overlay column in the cue list, and the overlay output: the layer exists, and what is drawn on it comes from a module.
- Templates and the designer: the mechanism is the program’s, and which designers you see depends on your modules.
Everything else in these fourteen parts works with no modules installed at all.
The quick answer to “why do I not have that button”
Because that module is not installed, or not switched on. It is never a setting hidden somewhere else — see Settings → Modules.
