My workflow is to make the images in xpression and export them as single images. This makes them .png. Then use FileZilla to send them over to Carbonite in a specific folder. I then create a separate custom control for each one. I put Custom Controls in record mode and just drag and drop the lower3rd I need into GFX 1 and then stop the record. I then give it a title.
These CC's live in the user buttons in the PGM bus of my Touchdrive. So right there in front of me is a row with the lower 3rd titles. I also put them in order of appearance sometimes.
Making these .pngs and having the custom control playback means the graphic recalls immediately. If you use RossTalk with xpression, there is a delay. But that way also works well and has less steps.

Trying to figure out how to create a playlist list of lowerthirds. I've got the graphics created and can use them whenever I want. But I would like to place them in order of when they will be on camera for quicker access. This is common , but for some reason I can't find it in my Carbonite Ultra media bins. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
