Based on the selected type, a custom dialog specific to the log item type is displayed for data entry.
Navigating Edit Dialogs
You can move through the fields displayed in an edit dialog by pressing the [Tab] or [Enter] key. Either
will advance you to the next field or button in the dialog. [Shift-Tab] moves backward through the fields
and buttons. Directly select a field for editing using your mouse with [Left-Click].
Most buttons have "accelerator" keys - press and hold the [Alt] key, then press the letter that's
underlined on the button. This will have the effect of pressing or clicking on the button.
4.4.2.1.1 Functionality Common to All Edit Dialogs
Some log records require a log time entry, some require a program or spot length. Some require a log
Type Code or Directive Type. Where possible, entry of this information is made easier with special edit
controls.
Time Fields
Time fields require a valid time be entered. The time entry fields in XStudio allow you to take some
short cuts in data entry.
For instance, if you want to enter a time of "3:00 PM", you can simply type "3p" and [Tab] to the next
field. The time will be correctly listed as "3:00 PM".
To enter a time of "3:15 PM", you can type "3.15p" or "15.15". Notice that you don't have to use a colon
( : ) in entry - a period will work just as well. For minute values like ":03", you can enter ".3" (no leading
zero required).
Log times are always expressed as hours and minutes with no seconds value, adhering to the
requirements of a log for DCS or Maestro.
Times entered without an "AM" or "PM", if entered in 12-hour format, will default
to "AM".
Length Fields
Length fields are those used for the length of an audio cart, the duration of a program, and the length
of a directive. These are not really clock times, but are expressed as hours, minutes and seconds of
