Activating an Inactive Shot


To activate an optional Shot that you intend to fulfill on-Set, select the inactive Shot, then select the {gear} icon on the control strip, and select “Activate” from the {gear} menu. This shot’s icon will switch to black, the shot title will bold and it will now be active for all ShotFlow capture functionality, including connecting to Capture One Pro and/or fulfilling captures via Drag and Drop. The “Added on Set” flag will also be set to TRUE/YES for this Shot, enabling reporting on which optional Shots were enabled on-Set.
