Adding a Ticker

In addition to video, audio, and graphics, the Digital Signage Player also allows
you to add a text ticker to your Digital Signage presentations. A text ticker is
ideal for presenting headlines or minor pieces of news to your audience.
The ticker can run at the top, bottom, or both the top and the bottom of the
screen.

1. To create a ticker, create a text fi le (using Windows Notepad, etc) and add

the text you want to display in the ticker window. Save the text fi le.

2. Select the ticker window in the template.

3. Click the Add button and select the text fi le (*.txt) fi le you created.

4. Next, we’re going to change the background color as the ticker effect.

Click the Option button or right-click the ticker fi le in the Media window and
select Option.
