Blank the second screen to obscure edits from talent or cut light from a prompter screen in camera view.

Blanking can be toggled in either Prompt or Edit mode. Use the Blank toolbar button, the “B” Hot Key in Prompt mode, or the Prompter ︎︎‣ Blank Screen menu item. A floating Blanking is on notice appears when Blanking is active:

Blanking images

The Prompter ‣︎ Blanking Options menu can set custom images to show during Blanking. The same menu also appears when secondary-clicking the preview in the Preview window when blanking is active:

The Blanking Options menu holds up-to 5 user images. Selecting an image moves it to the top of the list. Images at the bottom of the list are removed if more images are added. Image files are copied when added, allowing the original file to be moved or deleted without impacting the feature.

To replace an image (perhaps with a newer version) remove an existing image and then add the new image. Hold ⌥ Option while the menu is open to remove an image from the menu. Adding and removing images are only allowed in Edit mode.

The image respects the flipped state of the prompter (so it appears correct through mirror enclosures). The image scales down to fit the screen (so you don't need to worry about cropping or resizing). The image also does not scale up to allow uses of smaller images.

Auto Blank to Hide Edits

Auto Blank to Hide Edits turns Blanking on when entering Edit mode and turns Blanking off when entering Prompt mode. Blanking can still be toggled at any time. The setting just makes workflows that hide editing from the second screen more convenient by toggling it when the mode changes. The Auto Blank to Hide Edits setting is remembered across app restarts, like a preference.
