Split screen with playlist zones
Divide a screen into areas that each play their own playlist, with a ticker or your branding around them.
A playlist zone is an area of a design that plays a playlist of its own. Photos, videos and designs take turns in the zone, while the rest of the design — your logo, a clock, a ticker — stays put.
Make a split-screen layout
- Open or create a design, and choose Widgets → Split screen.
- Pick Playlist zone (one area), Two zones + ticker, or Three zones. They're placed in one step.
- Select a zone and choose its playlist, or choose New playlist to make one for it.
- Arrange and resize the zones like anything else in the designer, and add whatever you like around them.
- Put the design in your screen's playlist and publish.
Zone options
- Photos and videos: Fill the zone covers the whole area, trimming the edges if the shapes differ. Show all of it shows the whole picture, with a color of your choice behind it.
- Designs always show whole, with their own background around them. For a tall zone, a portrait design fits best.
- Videos in a zone play silently.
Press Preview in the designer to watch the zones play. Changes to a zone's playlist reach screens when you publish.
Content in zones is counted in Proof of play reports reports too.
