The Interface at a Glance

Paraclette is built around a single live dashboard. Learn these three regions and you can run a whole service from one screen.

The full Paraclette window showing the three regions: the transport bar across the top, the working panels in the center, and the live output.
The three regions: transport bar (top), working panels (center), live output.

The Transport Bar

The strip across the top is your command center. From left to right:

  • Tier badge & live timer — your current plan and how long the current session has been live.
  • Mode toggle — switch between Sermon and Worship modes.
  • Lower-third toggle — flip the live output between full-screen verse and a bottom-strip “lower third” caption.
  • Workspace Dock (center) — five labelled launchers: Studio, History, Archives, Notes, and Planner. Each lights up in its own colour while open.
  • Right utility strip — the alert bell (fire a congregation alert), the broadcast / cast control, keyboard-shortcuts help (?), and the settings gear.

The colour language

Paraclette uses consistent colours so you can read the screen at a glance, even from across the booth:
