Designing the final screen
The final screen is what guests look at longest: the finished picture, with the buttons for printing, sharing and finishing below it. To arrange them differently, open the editor — the button "Open screen editor" sits in "Finish & sharing" > "Customize Final Screen" and in the overview Screen editor.
It is operated exactly like the start screen editor: drag, resize at the corners, rotate at the round handle, align and distribute. This chapter only describes what is different on the final screen.
What is on the stage#
| Element | When it appears |
|---|---|
| Finished picture | Always |
| Notices | With photo strips, during processing, when there is a problem with sharing |
| Print button | With printing switched on and without automatic printing |
| Share button | From two ways to share onwards — they then sit under "Share/receive picture" |
| E-mail, web album and QR code button | With exactly one way to share; they then stand side by side |
| Finish button | When "Done & continue" is not hidden |
| Buzzer notice | With a notice set up for the final screen |
| Prize notice | Only for a session that won in the prize draw. The preview shows an example as long as the prize draw is on |
The picture area#
In the editor the finished picture does not get a fixed box but an area: the frame says how much room the picture may take up. The picture is fitted into it without being distorted — so a photo strip fills only the middle of a wide area, while a landscape picture reaches its sides.
Thin outlines are drawn inside the frame: landscape, portrait, square and photo strip, all four at once. They show at a glance whether a button beside it would lie on the picture in one of the formats. The format the preview currently shows filled in is drawn more strongly.
Width and height of the area can be changed freely at the corners — unlike with the other elements, no aspect ratio is kept. That is the point of the area: it belongs to none of the formats.
Anchor point and alignment#
The two fields sound similar and mean different things:
| Field | Effect |
|---|---|
| Anchor point | Which point of the area is placed on the coordinate |
| Alignment within the area | Where the picture sits inside the area when it does not fill it |
By default the picture sits in the centre of the area. To put the photo strip deliberately at the left edge of the area, use the alignment — not the anchor point.
Trying out the picture format#
The finished picture is not always the same shape: a photo strip is narrow and tall, a single photo usually landscape. A button that sits neatly beside the picture in landscape may lie on top of it with a photo strip.
The sidebar therefore offers four formats: landscape, portrait, square and photo strip. One click shows the arrangement with that format — the picture in the preview is a placeholder, only its shape matters.
What to keep in mind on this screen#
Custom elements#
Text, image and area can be added just as on the start screen — a sponsor logo, for instance, or a note about the photo album link. They carry their own switch and appear independently of any setting.
The arrangement belongs to the event#
It travels with copies and exports, like that of the start screen. Another event has its own arrangement — or none at all, and thus the familiar one.
