Creating Text Clips

A text clip is a screen capture of a transcript segment. The text clip can be added to a presentation to focus attention to an excerpt of a transcript. You create a text clip from either an open transcript in the Transcript area or from within the presentation window. Sanction saves text clips to the Exhibits > Images > Text Clips folder.

Sanction puts text clips in Exhibit > Images > Text Clips

When you create a text clip, you can select whether to include the name of the transcript and/or the page and line range from where the text clip was drawn. These values can be edited as needed. The screen shot below shows how the transcript title and page/line values look when included in the text clip.
