Starting the Schedule Editor

You may start the Show Editor from the Start Menu by selecting All Programs -> Light-O-Rama -> Light-O-Rama Schedule Editor. Alternatively, if Light-O-Rama is already running, you can right-click on the Light-O-Rama icon in the tray and select Schedule Editor

Opening, Saving, and Reverting

Light-O-Rama maintains just a single schedule, so when the Schedule Editor starts, it opens and displays the current schedule. Once you start editing, however, the displayed schedule may differ from the saved schedule. If you have been editing the Schedule and are satisfied with the changes you have made, you should Save the schedule by pressing the Save Button on the Toolbar. On the other hand, if you wish to discard your changes, you should Revert to the saved Schedule by pressing the Revert Button on the Toolbar.

In order for the changes you have made to the Schedule to take effect, you must first save the Schedule.

Switching Views

The Schedule consists of two components – a Weekly Schedule and a Calendar Schedule, though only one view is displayed at a time. When the Schedule Editor starts, it displays the Weekly Schedule. Switch to the Calendar View by pressing the Calendar Button on the Toolbar, and to the Week View by pressing the Week Button on the Toolbar.

Editing the Schedule

Editing the Schedule consists of Adding Shows, Deleting Shows and Editing Shows. For more details, see Editing the Schedule.

Exiting the Schedule Editor

You exit the Schedule Editor by closing the application. If you have changed the Schedule, remember to save your changes before you exit.
