====== Markers ======

Markers are one of the reasons we built CueCam! The ability to quickly annotate a clip is useful and the markers are designed so that they are easy to identify when scrubbing through footage.

===== Adding Markers =====

You can add a marker on the device, by simply tapping the screen during the recording, but the power of markers comes from OSC and being able to trigger them from the desk using [[OSC Commands]]

Everyone's workflow is different, and in beta testing we've heard so many ways people use these that are different to how I originally envisioned them, so please let us know how you find them useful. 

==== Macros ====

I use Macros and Direct Selects for most of my annotations. The following Macros define three markers; Live Move (in Magenta), Directors Note (in Cyan), and Fix Timing (in Orange)

==== Magic Sheets ====

You can fire Macros from a Magic Sheet, you can also directly set a ''Command'' target on a Magic Sheet button with the text in the command ''/cuecam/mark/c Dir. Note♦'' (where ''♦'' is the Enter command)

Combined with the [[RTSP Streams]], this provides feedback of markers as they are added in realtime.

===== Colours ===== 

There are 10 colours available;


<fc #A2191F>█ Red</fc>,  <fc #D02670>█ Magenta</fc>,  <fc #FE6100>█ Orange</fc>,  <fc #FFB000>█ Amber</fc>,  <fc #0E6027>█ Green</fc>,  <fc #004144>█ Teal</fc>,  <fc #00539A>█ Cyan</fc>,  <fc #001D6C>█ Blue</fc>,  <fc #785EF0>█ Violet</fc>.

These can be specified in the [[OSC Commands]] as either the full colour name (e.g. ''/cuecam/marker/magenta'' or the first letter of the colour ''/cuecam/marker/m'')
