Together with composition:builder ToolsOnAir provides you with a realtime graphics template package. It can be used to test and demonstrate some features of the FX layers.
It is possible that some of the templates provided with this template package may not play properly depending on the hardware, the playout resolution and some other parameters which are used for testing. |
Open the just:play and just:live or disk image.
Double-click the Install Template Package icon to install the templates into the Pictures folder of the current user. This folder is the default graphics repository of a standard just:live/just:play installation.
|
In just:live/just:play, switch to the Graphic tab in the Library. If everything went fine, the Library looks like in this screenshot.
1. Composition Builder Templates: these templates are created with composition:builder, ToolsOnAir's own broadcast graphics creation tool. Editing of these templates can only be done in composition:builder, which can be acquired from the → ToolsOnAir Helpdesk.
2. Quartz Composer Templates: these templates are created with Quartz Composer, a realtime, node-based visual programming environment by Apple. Editing of these templates can only be done in Quartz Composer.

A template which consists of three separate compositions. They can be scheduled and triggered independently on separate FX layers in just:play/just:live.
A lower third which displays five texts on a 3D cube.
A more complex news template which is made up of three sub-parts, each triggered by a stopframe.
A news template which displays its information in a lower third style. Can either be used on separate FX layers or as a whole graphics template on a single FX layer.
Displays the ToolsOnAir product lineup (2015 state). This template can be used infinitely as it automatically repeats its content. There are three variations of this template:
ToolsOnAir Product Lineup: default version of the template, displays the NAB logo.
ToolsOnAir Product Lineup - Logo from URL: displays a user-defined logo (instead of the NAB logo). Make sure to use the proper dimensions.
ToolsOnAir Product Lineup - No LT: version of the template where the lower third info is removed.
This folder contains four different templates to display current and next clip information.
Clip Progress and Clip Info: displays the current (and optionally the next clip name) and also an animated progress bar with remaining time of the current clip.
Display Current Clip Name: displays the current clip name in a lower third. This only happens at the beginning and at the end of a video clip, so you need to make sure to schedule the template over the whole duration of a clip (or use it on the infinite layer). In the Inspector there is also an option to manually force the showing of the lower third.
Display Next Clip Name: displays the next clip name in a lower third – but only when there is a next clip scheduled in the timeline of just:play/just:live. This only happens at the beginning and at the end of a video clip, so you need to make sure to schedule the template over the whole duration of a clip (or use it on the infinite layer). In the Inspector there is also an option to manually force the showing of the lower third (again: only when there is a next clip scheduled in the timeline of just:play/just:live).
Progress Bar: displays a simple animated progress bar with optional "remaining seconds" info.
A simple lower third template with a scrolling/crawling text. The separator between text elements is an image. You can modify several parameters in the Inspector.
An XML-based lower third where the displayed content can be selected by a simple UID (unique ID).
A sidescrolling credits template which automatically resizes the output of the video layer and also displays a lower third information.
Displays a two lined lower third with a nice animation.
A stock exchange template which displays exemplary stocks and automatically loops. The displayed values are stored in the XML file "stocks.xml" which is stored in the same folder as the template. It can be edited and changes will be reflected immediately. This template requires a lot of GPU power and should not be tested in combination with other templates.
Displays a cornerlogo with text scroller and product info.
Several basic sports graphics, like counters, clocks and text fields, which can be changed on the fly.
