Universal Presentation Processor
18 ¥ UPX-2: Universal Presentation Processor
To program the translucency of an object in VT Pro-e, double click on the object to
be made translucent. The properties window for the object appears.
"Button Properties" – Translucent Setting
Select the Effect Tab and move the slider to adjust the level of translucency from 0%
(none), to 100% (invisible). Save and compile the project and upload to the UPX-2.
NOTE: Translucent objects are translucent over graphic elements and backgrounds
only. The background cannot be translucent.
Layering Backgrounds, Video Windows, Objects,
Subpages, and Popup Windows
The following are guidelines for layering backgrounds, video windows and objects
in a UPX-2 VT Pro-e project.
Backgrounds – A background on a page is always the back layer. It cannot be
moved in front of video windows or objects.
Video Windows and Objects (buttons, etc.) – The depth of video windows and
objects are specified in VT Pro-e at design time.
Subpages – Subpage background and objects are always on top of other objects but
below popups. The subpages are displayed in the order in which the digital feedback
occurs. This allows a subpage to be placed on top of any other subpage.
Popup Windows – Popup windows are the top-most layer. Unlike subpages, popup
windows do not require a reference and will draw on top of the current page when
activated.
For additional information, consult the VT Pro-e help file.
Popup Windows
Popup windows (which contain control buttons and other objects) are not normally
visible to the audience display (output B) unless specifically assigned.
