Control Action


Control Action table


Control Bars


Control Chart

Control chart works with VDT plugins. You can add and delete rows when filling in numbers.

Control Clip


Control Condition


Control Container


Control DB Object


Control Data Action


Control Datapool


Control Feed

Control feeds, like Nasdaq, for example.

Control Field Identifier

Probably works, need to check full workflow for this.

Control Text

The text plugin from the new Viz Engine renderer pipeline.

Control Geom

Remember to set up search provider towards GH for using this. Deny upward browsing seems to be broken for geoms.

Control Hide in range


Control Hide on Empty

Often used to hide a group when a text field or other is left empty.

Control Image


Control Keyframe


Control List

Works as a regular table but is missing the functionality of moving lines up and down.

Control Material


Control NDI


Control Number


Control Object

Control object is normally added automatically to a scene when you add another control plugin. It is in this plugin you mark if a scene is part of a transition logic set or not. There should normally only be one control object in the scene. The exception is when you use control list when there is a control object for every line. The functionally of writing controlfields directly in the control object is currently not supported.

Control OMO

This controls an Integer from 0 to 5 etc. It is typically nice to use a dropdown for these with proper field names.

Control Parameter


Control Payload


Control Pie


Control Sign Container


Control Soft clip


Control Stoppoint


Control Classic Text

In general control text is supported. But the full workflow for rich text may not be supported.

Control VBI


Control Video


Control Field Renamer
