Designation Lists can be added/imported into OnCue via a TextMap Annotations Export(*.csv). It can be a very quick way to load a lot of designations all at once if you already have them in a TextMap Database. Make sure your OnCue database already has the sync files loaded.




 



How to Import TextMap Annotations Exports


1. Textmap Issues = OnCue Highlighter Colors


OnCue Highlighter Color Names must be identical to your TextMap issue names. First, setup your TextMap and then set your OnCue highlighter names to match. 

See this article on how to setup your OnCue Highlighter Names.



2. Export your TextMap Annotations


Second, export your Annotations. It is very import to include Notes and Issues. OnCue doesn't look at the notes now but it may in future and it lines up the columns for import.


Your Annotation CSV should look like this:


3. Transcript=Name


Next, the Transcript column in your CSV must match the Media ID for the transcript in OnCue.


You can copy this information from the Transcript tab by clicking on your transcript and at the bottom of the screen expand the arrow.


4. Name your File


What you name your CSV file is what will show up in OnCue. A file name of V5 Yokey Case Designations gets the ID of V5 and the name Yokey Case Designations.


5. Put it together


Once everything is as you want it to be. Import your designations.


In the Designations Tab hover over the "+" and select Import Designations from File...


Or choose Import from the File Menu or right-click in any tab and select Import > Import Designations...
