Settings Key

File Settings Key

When importing files, it is possible to include settings in the content of the file. Once the file is imported, the settings key will be used to setup basic settings for the file. The settings will then be removed from the content of the file.

Place all keys and values within the following blocks of text:

<Teleprompter Settings>
key=value
<Teleprompter End Settings>

The possible keys and values are:

Key	Value
Text Color	Red (0-255), Green (0-255), Blue (0-255), Alpha (0-255, optional) or "red", "orange", "yellow", "green", "cyan", "blue", "purple", "brown", "darkgray", "lightgray", "white", "magenta", "gray" Example: "255,100,135" or "red"
Highlight Color	Red (0-255), Green (0-255), Blue (0-255), Alpha (0-255, optional) or "red", "orange", "yellow", "green", "cyan", "blue", "purple", "brown", "darkgray", "lightgray", "white", "magenta", "gray" Example: "255,100,135" or "red"

The marker settings will only be applied to the imported file and the unique marker tags option. For more information about marker tags, see Marker Tags. Example: "paragraph,•" (Markers will be created for paragraphs and the • character), or "cap,num,< >" (Markers will be created for capitalized lines, numbered lines, and text surrounded by < and >).

Notes:

The order of the keys does not matter.

Not all keys are required.

Keys are case insensitive.

Spaces are optional.

The format is applied to the entire document.

Do not use the "=" character in the group name or file break.

File Breaks

File breaks can be inserted in the text content where the file should be broken up into multiple files. Any file break text can be used, but it should not conflict with intended text content.

Example:

<Teleprompter Settings>
Font Size=90
Font=Arial
Text Color=orange
Group Name=Notes
Background Color=0,0,0
<Teleprompter End Settings>

This example will result in the font being 90 point Arial, orange text color on a black background. The file will placed in a group called "Notes". This key can be placed anywhere in the file, typically at the beginning or end.
