 Schedule Area
This area show the active schedule (log).
The button on the left shows the calculated time the item will air. It also doubles as a start button allowing you to start an item that is not next to air.
It also shows the color of the deck (blue, purple, or green) which corresponds to the number of the deck.
If you have a multi-channel sound card with different decks on different pots, this helps you determine which pot is playing.
It also becomes a gauge of the On Air item's progress gradually filling up with red until it changes to the next cut.
The second field has the Audio Type, (Category), and cut number.
This is also the area you need to click if you wish to drag an item in the current schedule.
When your mouse is over the area it turns to a lighter shade of gray indicating dragability.
The 3rd field contains the Artist, Title, Album, Intro, Duration, and Ending (Fade/Cold).
You should know that the Duration value reflects the duration up to the Segue mark.
This allows you to know how much time you have before the next item triggers.
The button on the right says ON-AIR for the currently playing item.
For past items, the button will say DONE if the item played and SKIPPED if the item was skipped.
For future items the button will say DELETE allowing you to quickly delete unwanted items. You can delete loaded items, but not the item currently playing.

You can click above or below the dark gray slider to move a page at a time up or down.
Finally, if your mouse is over the scroll bar area, you can use the wheel on your mouse to scroll the schedule.
