Understanding Background Manager alerts
When the schedule changes, the Background Manager flags any day where grouped background has changed, so your plan doesn't drift out of date. You'll see a red diamond on the day in the sidebar, a red banner at the top of the groups, and a diamond on each affected group.
What triggers an alert
- A grouped background element, or its scene or category, was deleted or taken off the breakdown sheet.
- A grouped element's scene was moved to a different shoot day.
- The shoot day was renumbered.
New background that lands on a day doesn't trigger an alert. It simply shows up under Ungrouped BG.
Review and clear it
- Open the affected group. The Moved / removed background elements list shows what changed, as it was when you grouped it.
- Update your groups as needed, for example by regrouping the day's new background.
- Click Clear all on the banner and choose Clear for current day or Clear for all days. Clearing also removes any groups that are now empty.
Clearing an alert only hides it for you. Your collaborators still see it until they clear it. If the schedule changes again, the alert comes back.
