SuperSign Manager
•
What is a zone? A SuperSign Manager Zone is an area on the canvas in which the media or
a layer is placed while the content is being edited. You can create a zone by combining dif-
ferent types of media items and creating an ad by including another zone or zones (a zone
can accommodate only one type of media).
The zone can include photos, documents, web pages, videos, Flash files, music, and more.
Because each zone is a separate area, it has its own properties and can be easily deleted
or inserted. Also, ad content is easily created by dragging and dropping on to the canvas.
•
Only media with a single property can be added to a zone.
• For Office files, close the Office program before preview.
• Office files or web pages may not be displayed in the edit order (Z-order).
• When using an SWF file, you can do repeat play when the file is configured to do so.
• Some special characters cannot be used in content file names.(^, |, \, <, >, ?, /, ‘, “, *, ;, :, %)
•
The maximum number of zones that can be created in the canvas varies depending on the
type of zone:
- Photo zone: up to 20
- Music zone: up to 4 (max. 1 for a monitor player)
- Text zone: up to 20
- Video zone: up to 4 (max. 1 for a monitor player)
- Flash zone: up to 20
- Web or Widget zone: up to 4
-
Office zone: up to 4
- PDF zone: up to 10
•
The monitor player cannot have both a music zone and a video zone in the same content.
• Video thumbnails are randomly extracted from the first few seconds of playback.
• If a video fails to upload, see 117 Page, “Unified Codecs” and make sure that a required codec
is installed.
•
Services (RSS, websites, RSS, etc.) and text cannot be copied.

the Canvas, automatically creates its media zone.
