Why would I edit an action line before self-taping?

Edit an action line if:

  • the action line is too long
  • it takes up too much space in the teleprompter
  • you only need a few key reminders
  • the action line has imported incorrectly
  • you want the note to be clearer before recording

Can I hide action lines instead?

Yes.

If you do not want action lines to appear while self-taping, you can turn Show Action Lines off in the teleprompter settings.
