Feature suggestion: Naming Cue points

Hello all,

I think it would be very useful to be able to name Cue points in addition to numbering them. Cue points are a great tool to outline programming timing and or slide events but very soon after it's easy to forget what you added them.

We can even have a pop up window or tab that will show all available cues in a running list.

Additionally, being able to name the Cues will make collaboration easier and adding triggers clearer. Seems to me it's an easy addition..

What do you think?

  • I agree with Eitan. Much like giving variables meaningful names to help with recognition. This becomes even more important when you have a lot of cue points and are trying to match them up with various triggers.

    I submitted a request sometime last year. Hopefully, this will get implemented.

      Numbers can get out of sequence if something in the timeline changes and you need to rearrange cue points. Also, if you need to delete a cue point, it leaves an empty spot and as new ones are added, things can get crazy pretty fast!

  • This is one of the many features I think is a no-brainer and I'm surprised it doesn't already exist. 

  • Ditto for feedback that the ability (feature update) renaming cuepoints would be very helpful.
