Resizing Images
New to this? What the instructions mean
Click means select with your mouse (or tap on a touch screen). Row menu means the small actions menu beside an item in a list. Drop-down means a box you click to choose an option. Drag and drop means hold the mouse button on an item, move it, then release.
CMS is your online screen-control system. Display means a managed screen. Publish makes a layout ready to play. Schedule chooses the screens and times.
Some buttons depend on your version and permissions. If your screen looks different, ask your administrator or get help.
This is a detailed reference page. If you are just getting started, show your first image first.
Default thresholds and limits can be specified which are then considered in the event an image should be resized. This could be when uploading an image or an image being downloaded by a Widget - NASA RSS in a Ticker Widget for example.
Settings can be configured from the Settings page under the Administration section of the main CMS menu.
- Click on the Defaults tab:
Resize Threshold
- Set a maximum threshold (based on the longest side) that should be considered for resizing an image.
If you set a Resize Threshold of 1920 and you upload/download an image which is 800, this image would not need resizing. If you uploaded/downloaded an image which was 2400, this would then be resized to 1920.
Resize Limit
- Set a limit (based on the longest side) for uploaded/downloaded images. Images that exceed this limit will not be processed and should be replaced with another image that is within the limit.
This setting will determine whether the image file is too large to be processed.
