Scenes Panel

The column on the far left of the studio, always visible - it is not a tab and does not have to be opened. It holds every scene of the session in two groups.

The scenes column at the far left of the studio highlighted, with the Dynamic Scene block on top, the Pro Scenes list and the Add Scene button

Dynamic Scene (top)

A single block with its own thumbnail. The Dynamic Scene arranges whoever is on stage automatically using layouts and branding - nothing is positioned by hand. Clicking it selects it for editing.

Pro Scenes (below)

The scrollable list of scenes built by hand in the editor, one tile each, with a thumbnail and the scene name. At the bottom sits the Add Scene button, which opens the create-scene dialog.

What you can do with a scene tile

ActionResult
ClickSelects the scene for editing
HoverReveals a play button that puts the scene on air
Right-click (or the ⋮ button on the tile)Opens the scene menu
Drag the handleReorders the scene in the list

There is no double-click to go live and the name is not editable in place - renaming is done from the scene menu.

Live and preview marking

The scene currently on air is highlighted in the list (and carries a live label). In studio mode the selected scene is the one being edited while the highlighted one keeps playing to viewers. There are no “PGM” / “PVW” badges.

The scene menu

Right-click a scene tile (or use the ⋮ button):

The scene menu open next to a scene tile, highlighted: Rename, Duplicate, Stinger / Transition, Background Color, Share scene and Remove

  • Play scene - puts it on air
  • Rename
  • Duplicate
  • Stinger / Transition - the transition played when switching to this scene
  • Background Color - opens a colour picker with an “Overwrite Background Color” checkbox, so the scene can use its own background instead of the session default
  • Share scene - export the scene so it can be used elsewhere
  • Remove - deletes the scene, after a confirmation. It is not offered for the scene that is currently on air during a live session.

The menu item is Remove, not “Delete”, and there is no “Set as default” - the scene a broadcast starts with is chosen in the Go Live panel under “Starting scene”.

Opened from a scene shown inside the scene editor, the same menu offers Paste and Add Layer instead of Rename/Duplicate.
