We are currently working on:

• A single menu option for the Default and Tiles templates that will allow a single sub-menu to be loaded directly, bypassing the main menu. This feature will be similar to the existing no menu option but will load a single sub-menu rather than a single member’s content pages.
• A new responsive template is in development. This template is being designed for the display of interactive experiences on any device, accommodating off-site viewing by guest users.

If you have other ideas that you’d like us to consider, please feel free to submit a feature request.

A new Timeline template is available. This is an interactive template used to present a sequence of historical milestones or other relevant events. See Stations 1, 2, or 3 in the demo for an example. Details can be found in the Templates section of the User Guide (under Editor). To assign the new template in the editor, simply select it from the template menu on the Modules tab.

Messages can now be broadcast to one or more stations in real-time. When message broadcasting is active a horizontal scrolling message is displayed along the top of each selected station. A global message can be sent to any or all stations, or targeted messages can be sent to individual stations. See Station 5 in the demo for an example. See Message Broadcasting under the Settings topic in the User Guide for details.

An example of the Boxes attract screen template can now be previewed in the demo. This template is designed to display multiple members at once and is ideal when several members have no images available, or only low-resolution images available. Select Station 3 in the demo to view an example.

NOTE: Each interactive’s attract screen is designed to function as a standalone media element, cycling through and displaying each member in the absence of user interaction. Attract screens also help to prevent screen burn-in and image retention on susceptible displays.

We are finalizing the details on support for Looking Glass holographic 3D displays, which allow groups of people to experience holographic 3D together and without glasses or headsets! The latest beta release is now available for all members to try out. If you have a Looking Glass display, you are all set – simply upload your holographic files under Settings or for each member and give it a go. Holograms can be displayed automatically for each page or manually via buttons or tabs created in the Text Editor. Full details will be added to the User Guide upon official release. Feel free to contact us with questions.

If you aren’t a member, please feel free to request access to a guest account for testing. As always, we’re happy to receive your feedback and suggestions!

Soundtracks can now be added to timelines to provide ambiance. To add a soundtrack, expand the Timeline Background Audio panel, select or upload an MP3 soundtrack, save and enjoy!
