Interface

Customize the visual appearance and the modules that operators see in the main workspace.

Interface preferences tab with theme, language, and module visibility controls

Theme​

Choose your preferred color scheme:

  • Dark - Dark theme optimized for low-light environments
  • Light - Light theme for bright environments
  • System - Follow your operating system's theme preference

:::tip Best Practice Most broadcast environments use Dark theme to reduce eye strain during long production hours. :::

Language​

Select your preferred interface language:

  • English (en)
  • Português (pt) - Portuguese
  • Español (es) - Spanish

Language changes apply immediately to all interface elements, including:

  • Menu items and buttons
  • Dialog boxes
  • Status messages
  • Form labels

Modules​

Control visibility of specific modules and features:

  • Media - Video, image, and audio playback
  • Lyrics - Song lyrics and hymnal system
  • Hymn - Dedicated hymn block module
  • Bible - Scripture display
  • Lower Thirds - Name and title graphics
  • QR Code - QR code generator blocks
  • Credits - Production credits and acknowledgments
  • Ticker - Scrolling text ticker
  • Channel Graphics - Channel-specific graphics
  • Layers - Live view of CasparCG layers in use
  • Emergency - Emergency alert system

Module visibility changes apply immediately and are useful for simplifying the interface for a given operator or event.

How Interface Visibility Relates to Layouts​

Interface visibility and layout customization are related, but they are not the same thing:

  • Interface → Modules controls whether a module is available at all
  • Layouts controls where visible modules are placed, hidden temporarily, or grouped into saved presets

If you need to rearrange columns, hide modules temporarily, or save role-specific workspaces, see Layouts.

Operator Recommendations​

Some common setups:

  • Lyrics operator - Keep Lyrics, Bible, Rundown, and Media visible
  • Graphics operator - Keep Lower Thirds, Channel Graphics, Credits, and Rundown visible
  • Technical director - Keep most modules visible and use layout presets for different show phases

Notes​

  • Theme changes apply across the application
  • Language changes are immediate
  • Module visibility is stored per installation and persists across restarts
