You can superimpose a text over video in the camera window. This text will be visible to all users in all monitoring modes but will not be present on exported frames and videos.

To put a text over the camera window, do the following:

  1. Select a Camera object and click .

    Note

    You cannot do it if the button is depressed (see Privacy mask settings). 

    Note

     For your convenience, you can click the button and configure the mask on a still frame/snapshot. To undo, click this button again.

  2. Click any mouse button anywhere in FoV to set two anchor points of the rectangular area where the text will be displayed. The higher the area, the more the font size.

    Note

    To remove the area, click the button.

  3. Click .

  4. Enter the required text. By default, the name of the video camera is displayed.

    Attention!

    The text string has to fit the width of the area. If not, you cannot apply settings. For a longer text, make the area wider.

  5. Select a font color from the dropdown list.
  6. Click the OK button.
  7. If required, you can set multiple text areas in different parts of FoV.
  8. Click Apply.

Now, the text is superimposed over the video image.
