A "BLANKS" dialog box will appear allowing us to set the BLANK DWELL and
TRANSITION. Type "5" in the blank.
We now have a blank set in column B below the first page.
Now, a blank won't do much good at the end there other than it would cause the page
"Theme069.jpg" to start 5 seconds later than column A's first entry the second time around. The
blank would continue to add 5 seconds to the total play time of that column.
Perhaps though, we want to hold off column B for five seconds at the very beginning of the set.
We have to rearrange the content within that column.

Rearrange Elements Within a Layer

Right click on the page that we want to move...in this case, that is "Theme069.jpg".
Then click CUT.
"Theme069.jpg" should disappear from the column now.
Next, simply right click in the column again, and click PASTE.
"Theme069.jpg" should now reappear in the column, but now below the BLANK
instead of above it.
Start the PREVIEW window now—notice the BACKGROUND and COLUMN A
start immediately while COLUMN B starts 5 seconds later.
Now, as you build your set, you can time events to come and go.
One trick to a professional looking set is that each layer (or column) should end up with the same
total duration. That way, every time the Set Recycles, your timing and events will maintain their
relationships as you intended. Check the ADVANCEDDEMO.SET to see how a complicated set
can be timed to interact between columns and layers.

SCHEDULE AND COMMUNICATE

The final step to being on air with your graphics is communications.
On the Menu Bar, Click COMMUNICATION then MX SCHEULER
The SCHEDULER WINDOW will open.
