Layouts

Preferences → Layouts

Custom layouts are a Production-level feature.

Every widget, and what it shows: Overlay Widgets. This page is the editor.

Presets

The starred Default preset is locked — duplicate it to edit. The menu on each preset gives Duplicate, Rename and Delete, and Export / Import move a layout (.srlayout) between machines.

Layouts are saved with the project, so a show carries its own looks.

Canvas

  • Grid — a 16×9 guide, on by default.
  • 0,0 at canvas centre — flips the position sliders from 0…1 to −0.5…0.5, if you'd rather think from the middle out.
  • Drag to move, drag the handles to resize. Arrow keys nudge, +arrows nudge 10× further, ⌘⌫ deletes.

The preview shows the live camera behind your widgets — except while recording, when it pauses ("Live preview paused while recording").

Widget palette

Filter by All / Show / Cues / Time / Custom; unused widgets sort to the top. Every widget is single-instance — clicking one that's already on the canvas just selects it — except Secondary Lighting Cue, which you can add as many times as you have parallel cue lists.

Inspector

Per widget: Visible, Position & Size, Font Size, Justification, Colour, and Typeface (with Use this font for every widget). Then the per-widget extras — the PNG image, the wall-clock format, the number-line marks, the Second Feed's crop and flip, the Secondary Lighting Cue's list picker, and so on.

OSC ID names a widget so it can be driven remotely:

/showrevue/widget/<id>/show
/showrevue/widget/<id>/hide
/showrevue/widget/<id>/color
