Static text can be added to your Layout template for various purposes. As with the Playlists, if your Layout is already published, any changes you make will automatically update your display.
To add Static Text to your layout:
Click on the 'Text'(T) /‘Multi-line Text’ options in the top left of the designer window
The zone will appear on your canvas
Click on the zone and drag/stretch it into the desired position
To Add/Edit text, you can now:
Click on your Text zone to highlight it.
Click on the Zone Properties tab in the feature row to open the sidebar
Here you can set the Size & Position, Background, Font and Asset.
Using the different menus in the sidebar, you can change the alignment and create multiple rows of text.
When you are happy with your text, you can complete the rest of your Layout design and hit save. If your Layout has already been published to some of your displays, you’ll be given the choice of whether you want these to update automatically.
