Yeah I am a newbie also. But I did alot of playing around on another PC.

1). Load TD
2). Goto the layout tab. Make sure that the screen selection is on Main Screen.
3). Click on the background button on the left menu bar.
4). Browse to the image you want to set as your background.
5). Select the Overide all background colors (make them transparent)
6). Click OK.

Hope this helps.

wow, you guys did great. I want to come up with some wicked layouts too but my mind goes blank. The first layout: great picture. I was thinking about this the other day and came to the conclusion that I would have to find some kind of dark picture, but wasn't sure how it would work. You confirmed that its great. I'm tempted to take that picture you offered, thanks!

segundo, those are great backgrounds.  I love the suits - very nice looking and dark, making the tournament details stand out starkly against them.

Is there a way to use the four suit backgrounds as I'm cycling between rounds (e.g. club for 1, diamond for 2, spade for 3, heart for 4, club for 5, diamond for 6, etc)?

Boy, I know that you could have a different background for odd and even rounds, but that would only cover 2 of the suits.

You could also have 4 different screen sets (of say the main screen, just with different backgrounds) and have them rotate, but it would be hard to match that up with the round changes, the background would just change at your specified time interval.

I can't think of a way to make it do exactly what you want (doesn't mean there isn't a way).

Segundo,

I'd love to get a few details on this layout, so I've sent you a PM with a question or two about it.

Ryguy,

I guess that you could set up a screen for each of the 4 suite backgrounds, then set a screen set for each individual round and include a different background screen for each of these screen sets.

That would get you what you want for the rotating suits. (pretty sure)
Title: Re: layout
Post by: Corey Cooper on February 02, 2007, 02:13:33 PM
That is how you would have to do it.  Unfortunately you can't just create 4 different screen sets - you have to create a screen set for every round.  But at least you don't have to recreate the screens!
Title: Re: layout
Post by: RyGuy on February 02, 2007, 03:03:48 PM
So I'd have a screen set for round 1, and the "Main Screen" would be what I want layout-wise plus the clubs background; then a screen set for round 2, and the "Main Screen" would be the same layout plus a diamonds background; etc/?

Sorry for these beginner's questions, but I'm only two days (about 3 hours) into the new program and still feeling a little lost with some of the new concepts like screen sets, main screens, backgrounds, etc.  Hopefully that will work itself out.

Title: Re: layout
Post by: tandemrx on February 02, 2007, 03:18:13 PM
Actually, you would create 4 screens:  call them spades, hearts, diamonds, clubs or something like that.

Then, you would create a new screen set for each round.  So, make a screen set that is called "round1" and set the conditions for this screen appearing such that the "stage" area lists it under "round" 1.  Set this screen set so that the screen "spades" is displayed.

Then set up another screen set called round2 and set the conditions for this screen appearing such that the stage area lists it under "round" of 2.  Set this screen set such that the screen "hearts" is displayed.

etc etc.

So you will have 4 screens and
a bunch of screen sets (go well past the number of rounds you expect the tourneys to last).

Rather than having the screen sets >/= the number of rounds, is there a way I can create 4 screen sets (one per suit) and employ those in the rotation?
Title: Re: layout
Post by: Corey Cooper on February 02, 2007, 04:55:31 PM
The screens within a screen set rotate on a time factor only.  Screen sets are chosen based on conditional factors (like round number).  Which is why you need to create a different screen set for each round.

You could create your 4 screens and add them all to one screen set.  You could set the rotation time to be the same time as your round length.  That way you'd end up with the screens rotating in tandem with the round changes, so long as you don't pause the clock...

Segundo,

Thanks for the backgrounds.  I used some of yours to make these backgrounds I use as a repeating background for the Seating Chart page.
