Programs

PROGRAMS are one of the most important concepts in the SmarterSign system. These are the design creations that you build inside the system to present on your screens.

Creating a Program

To create a program in either landcape or portrait 16:9 aspect ratio, click on the CREATE FROM SCRATCH button on the CONTENT screen. Create Program Simple Diagram From here you can select to create a LANDSCAPE program or a PORTRAIT program by clicking on the option you wish to create. This will open a blank canvas for you to start the editing process. See CONTENT MANAGEMENT to find out more about how you create PROGRAMS.

Creating a Program Custom

SmarterSign allows you to create PROGRAMS of any resolution or size. This can be useful if you are creating for a non-standard display or if you are creating content for a portion of your display. To create a program like this click on the SEE MORE OPTIONS button on the screen above Create Program Custom Diagram

On this screen you can select your custom resolution for your PROGRAM and see a preview of the shape and details of your program on the left hand side. The following options for your resolution can be selected on the left:

  • Standard resolutions such as 1080p (sometimes called Full HD), or 4K in both landscape or portrait
  • A resolution on your network from the drop-down list
  • A custom resolution where you will enter the width and height in pixels

The options for RESOLUTION ON YOUR NETWORK will come from the screen divisions you have created in the Player SETTINGS
