• If after Apply you wan to continue insert cues at the last cue entered, select Update. The Script will scroll to the last row and you can create a new sequence.
  
  There are 3 methods of operation.
  
  

• Compute # of Cues: You can select a Time in and a Timeout for the effect and interval. Show Director will calculate the number of cues necessary.
• Compute Interval: You can select a Time in and a Time-Out and the number of cues. Show Director will calculate the interval in-between cues.
• Compute Duration: You can select a Time in, the number of cues and the interval. Show Director will calculate the Time Out.
