+====== WebCam interface ======
+{{:beyond:webcam1.png?nolink|}}
+Access to the WebCam Interface is possible by the small  button with the “webcam” icon on the status bar or in the main menu View -> Web Camera in grid mode.
+The WebCam Interface window has four buttons.
+{{:beyond:webcam2.png?nolink|}}
+The Device button calls a menu that has 2 options:
+**Open WebCam interface** - shows a list of detected web cameras and resolutions. We recommend to use middle-range resolutions. Too high as resolution can increase CPU and memory loads.
+**Close WebCam interface** - closes an already opened device.
+**Trace** - enables or disables real time tracing.
+**Tracer** - calls a Tracer window where you can adjust the Tracer settings. Note, the tracer can use one of two video sources - Kinect or WebCam. That is why the WebCam and Tracer have separate windows.
+It is possible to capture a picture and use it as background for the Cue. This would be handy for DMX or Beam cues. For making a web cam screen capture - hold **CTRL** key and drag & drop the webcam window client area to a cue.
+To quickly move of the window, drag the main client area. This functionality is also implemented in the Video and EmuLaser windows.
