Page properties
Style properties
The Style Properties define how a page will visually appear and behave during playback.
Background Color
Color
- Determines the background color of the page.
- You can specify:
- A fixed color
- A gradient (two or three colors)
- A texture or pattern
- For full options, see Using the Color Picker.
- Note: Transparency is not supported for page background colors.
- Important: If a master page is applied to this page, the background color is inherited from the master page and cannot be set individually.
Optional Device LED Light Bar
LED Color
- Allows setting a LED bar color when this page becomes visible.
- Note: This works only on displays with an integrated LED bar.
- Supported colors depend on the device type — refer to device specifications and PADS4 certified devices documentation.
- When enabled, the color will activate on the display when the page is shown.
Master Page Visibility
Show the Master Page on the Background of this Page
- When enabled, the master page elements are displayed behind the current page’s content.
- Only available if a master page exists in the presentation.
- If disabled, this page can have a unique layout, different from the master page.
- Note: Master page elements (like videos) will pause when hidden and resume when shown again.
Tip: Disabling the master page for specific pages lets you design custom layouts where needed.
Page Background Image
Picture File
- Choose a background image:
- Picture from Content Library (recommended, for automatic synchronization across the system).
- Picture from File (external file, requires manual distribution to all viewers).
Tip: Always prefer using the Content Library to ensure consistency and synchronization across all PADS4 devices.
Picture Size
- Controls how the background image fits within the page.
Value | Description |
---|---|
Original Size | Displays the image at its native resolution. If the page is smaller, only part of the image will show; if larger, the image won’t stretch. Best quality and performance. |
Stretched | Resizes the image to fully cover the page, regardless of the original image size. |
