Introduction

Its configuration is divided in two major categories: Design and Data. As the name says, the Design tab handles all that's related to the design of the layout of the menu board with the possibility of saving that style to use with other menu boards. The Data tab holds only the data in the cells, which includes the images. This data can be imported as well as exported to a file.

Design

Menu Board design tab

Layout

Configuration of the layout involves the background, title, header, image and table body. All the components but the table body can be disabled.

Background

Background configuration

Independent of the background type, it's always possible to configure the margins.

None

This option is almost the same as not having the background enabled. The only difference is that the margins can still be applied this way.

Solid Colour

Sets a background colour with the option of adding more or less opacity, add round corners and specifying a border. The border can be enabled or disabled and have a specific thickness, colour and opacity.

Linear Gradient

This option is similar to the Solid Colour with the difference that can be applied a gradient. The gradient implies adding a second colour with a dedicated transparency setting as well as the angle of the gradient.

Image

Allows setting an image background. The image can be scaled to fit or stretch and be aligned vertically and horizontally. The border and corners can also be configured the same way they are when using Solid Colour.


Title

Title configuration

Layout

Height is self explanatory, it controls the height of the title. The bottom spacing is the space between the title and the next enabled component. So, if a component is disabled, the configuration will still have the same effect.

Font

Here you can configure the font like any regular text editor. If the horizontal alignment is left or right, indentation will become enabled so the component doesn't have to be in the edge of the component. It's also possible to configure vertical alignment but in this case it's not possible to add a vertical indentation. The size is automatic by default so it has the maximum size that fits in the component.

Background, Corners and Line

The background, corner and line are configured the same way as in the Background component.

Shadow

It's possible to add a shadow to the component with the configurable options being angle, blur, distance, colour and opacity.


Header Row

Header Row configuration

The Header Row component has the same configurations as the Title component with the exception of the font. Unlike the title, this component doesn't support horizontal alignment or the indentation associated with it. </translate>
