Cue Preferences
The number of properties offered for media cues allows you to program each cue the way you want. But if you tend to use the same basic settings for most cues of a particular type, it's tedious to program these settings every time you create a cue. To save yourself lots of work, change the default settings for that cue type. For example, if you use the same background, font and transition for most of your Lyric cues, make these the default settings for Lyric cues. This is done in the cue type's preferences dialog.
 
To open a cue type's preferences dialog:
 
1      Click the Preferences menu, then choose the cue type (e.g., Lyric Cues). The preferences dialog for that cue type will open.
 
2      Change the default settings as you like. A user-assignable sample song, Bible passage or media file can be used to preview the settings. Click OK to apply the new defaults.
 
Note that properties chosen in a cue type's preferences dialog are default settings: They're applied only to new cues of that type, not to existing cues. And of course, although a cue uses the default settings when it's inserted, these settings can be changed during the creation process or anytime thereafter, simply by changing them in the cue's properties dialog.
