Overview

Attract screen templates are used to customize the appearance and functionality of the attract screen. To assign an attract screen template, select it from the Attract Screen Template menu on the Attract Screen Panel on the Modules tab. Configuration and style settings for each attract screen template are assigned on the Text and Labels and Style and Layout panels. Saved changes will be visible in the interactive the next time the attract screen is reloaded; either by a screen refresh or by navigating to a different page and then back.

The Default attract screen template cycles through each member, fading in their full screen Action image, followed by a user defined Attribute text block, and then a call to action Touch Instruction. The Default attract screen template is an ideal choice if there are high-resolution Action images available for each member. Until a member is assigned an Action image, a placeholder image is displayed along with the text blocks. This provides end-users with a preview of new members even before their content is ready to be published.

Action Image

Each member's Action image is used as a full screen background. If a member has no action image assigned to them the default action image is used, and if there is no default action image assigned the built-in placeholder image is used. Each member's action image is assigned on the corresponding Member Image Panel on the Members tab. The default action image is assigned on the Default Images panel on the Modules tab.

Style and Layout Panel:
Background Tint
Adding a translucent tint overlay can help make the text easier to read. Adding a tint on the Style and Layout panel on the Modules tab will affect all of the attract screen images. To override this setting for a specific member, use the Attract Screen Override panel on the Members tab.
Image Saturation
Image saturation can be adjusted from grayscale (0) to full color saturation (1). Changing the image saturation on the Style and Layout panel on the Modules tab will affect all of the attract screen images. To override this setting for a specific member, use the Attract Screen Override panel on the Members tab.
Background Texture
Background texture adds a slight graininess to images. Changing the background texture on the Style and Layout panel on the Modules tab will affect all of the attract screen images. To override this setting for a specific member, use the Attract Screen Override panel on the Members tab.

Text Placement

Adjust the placement of the Touch Instruction and Attribute text blocks to improve legibility and overall composition.

Style and Layout Panel:

Text Placement

The placement of the attribute text block and the touch instruction text block are random by default, but can be set to fixed positions. Use the Attract Screen Override panel on the Members tab to position text blocks specific to an individual member's image.

The small graphic next to each option provides a visual reference as to the placement of each block. The default setting is Random. The uppercase letters next to each graphic also provide a reference as to the placement of each block. Each letter represents a position, as follows:

T = Top

R = Right

B = Bottom

L = Left

The first two letters represent the position of the attribute text block (black box) and the second two letters represent the position of the touch instruction text block (red box). E.g. TLTR = Top Left placement of the attribute text block and Top Right placement of the touch instruction text block.

TIP: From the Member Image Panels, keep the Action Image panel open to provide a visual reference when deciding on the ideal placement of each text block.

Transition Speed

Adjust the duration of the transition between each member featured on the attract screen.

Style and Layout Panel:

Transition Speed

The transition speed adjusts the overall amount of time it takes to cycle through a single member. The time can be adjusted between a range of approximately 9 - 15 seconds. The default settings is medium.

The Boxes attract screen template displays multiple members at once. Each member's image fades in, pauses, and then fades out to display text associated with the member. The Boxes attract screen template is an ideal choice if several members have only low resolution images available, or have no images available. The Boxes template does not display a placeholder image when a member image is unavailable, but it will still display the text associated with each member, making it an ideal solution when photographic content is limited.

Text Box

Text and Labels Panel:
Text Box Display Frequency
Select how often to display the text associated with each member when their image fades out. A setting of 0 will prevent the text from being displayed at all, while a setting of 100 will display the text every time the image fades out. To override this setting for a specific member, use the Attract Screen Override panel on the Members tab.
Text Box Frequency Override
The text associated with each member will be displayed whether or not a member image is available. Check this checkbox to override the Display Frequency setting and force the text to be displayed whenever a member's image is unavailable.
