Type icons
The icon in the upper left corner of an object’s thumbnail denotes the type of item: menu
, timeline
,
playlist
, chapter playlist
, or slide show
.
Info badges
The info badge in the upper-right corner of an item’s thumbnail details certain attributes, depending on the type of
item. (The audio and subtitle track badges actually denote tracks specified by the incoming link, not attributes of the
item.) The labels on an info badge denote the following attributes:
N
one
Default button is set to none.
B[n]
Default button is set to button [
n
].
BA
Default button is set to the active audio track.
BS
Default button is set to the active subtitle track.
A[n]
Audio track is set to audio track [
n
].
S[n]
Subtitle track is set to subtitle track [
n
].
SX
Subtitle track is off.
C[n]
Link to chapter [
n
].
Link lines
The appearance of link lines informs you of the relationship between elements, and the arrow indicates the direction
of the link.
Solid black lines
Represent a normal link.
Red lines
Represent a broken link. A broken link means that the destination of the link has been changed indirectly
(by some action other than specifying the link), and is no longer valid. For example, if you delete the element to
which a link points, the link appears as broken.
Blue lines
Indicate that the object the link originated from is selected. When you select a broken link, the line
remains red, but the arrow appears blue.
Dashed lines
Indicate a link overridden by a prior object. The dashed link will not be followed in this location—the
end action override of the prior object is followed.
Double-headed arrows
Indicate an override end action returning to the original item.
Transition icon
Indicates a button link with a transition.
Flowchart tools
Selection tool
Functions as a link tool, or a pick whip. Drag from an object in the Flowchart to another object, inside
or outside of the Flowchart, to set a link to the target item.
Direct Select tool
Functions as a drag-and-drop tool. Drop an item from anywhere, including Windows Explorer or
the Mac OS Finder, onto an item in the Flowchart to set an outgoing link from the target item to the dropped item.
(Dropping items from Windows Explorer or the Finder automatically imports the asset and converts it to an Encore
project element.)
Move tool
Moves manually placed items in the Flowchart (aliases can’t be moved). You can also convert automati-
cally placed items to manually placed items by dragging them with the Move tool. The Move tool does not set any
type of link.
