Note: It's not possible to modify any aspect of the actions, all modifications have to be done in Builder Mode.

After installation, a desktop shortcut is created that's used to launch Viz Arc directly in On Air Mode, without the possibility of entering Builder Mode. You can use additional command line options for startup.

Note: Users can switch and save as projects in On Air Mode.

In Builder Mode you can right click on an action tab and select Is Builder-only. A small icon shows that the tab is Builder-only, the entire tab does not appear in On Air Mode. This prevents users from inadvertently executing actions that should not used during On Air operations.
