General Settings
Much like logos, the [Save Settings]
button creates Settings Files with
unique names that appear in the
drop down menu within the Display
Check Boxes area.
Watch: Checking this box tells NewsScroll to check the
data source regularly for updates.
Save Settings: Save the template, data source, and
position as a Settings File.
Transition Speed: Change the speed at which the transitions occur.
Playing Interval: When [Single Group] is unchecked, change the time interval length for each set of data.
Single Group: Checking this box will leave the data on screen without transitions. If there are multiple sets of
data that need to be transitioned in and out, leave this box unchecked.
Tip
To remove a Data Box Settings File, go to
C:\Users\UserName\Documents\Compix\
NewsScroll\SettingFile\Box and delete the
appropriate file while NewsScroll is closed.
