7.9.2 Editing an MVR layout

UMD
Under Monitor Display (UMD) is a user interface element for Event Master Toolset. It holds the name of the window it is attached to and a background color. The UMD is layered on top of the window and helps with identifying what that window is supposed to be. UMDs are typically only displayed within the software and not on the image. However, MVRs send the UMD with the image by default. This helps with providing context of each content window.
Location
  1. Navigation side bar: MVR
  2. Left panel: All Sources
  3. Right panel: MVR Setup or Adjust window or MVR Templates or MVR Presets
Template layouts

Some MVR layout suggestions have been added as templates. These templates will create grids of windows in the shape specified by its name. These templates can be modified further or used as final layout.

How to edit
  1. Select the desired MVRs at the top of the central work area.

  2. Select the layout that must be edited at the top of the central work area.

    Tip: Each MVR can have up to 10 different layouts prepared.
    Tip: By default layout1 gets auto populated depending on the configuration. If layout1 is ever overwritten, then the auto population will no longer happen.
