Version 9.3 > Added displays
We now have up to six displays, whereas previously there were just projection, stage, and preview.
Is there any information anywhere about how these might be setup and used?
We are using one to show the projection screen on a small monitor on the projection desk, but cannot
make it show anything but a black background and the song and scripture text alignment is
not what is showing on the projector. Is there help somewhere?
Dick,
Yes - there are several articles that cover the use of the available outputs in detail.
Starting with article SongShow Plus Display Settings - Output Window - A Primer will lead you to all the relevant info.
The last paragraph of that long article did, indeed, give what I needed. That feature is hidden extremely well -- no one would ever find on their own. "Override None" solved the
problem -- mostly. We still find that centered text on the projection is left-justified on the "Other" monitor. Also, we put the title information in the lower right corner of
the title slide, but it is centered full-screen on "Other." At least all the information is there, even if it is not exactly formatted correctly.
I guess there is no answer coming for the fact that the font size and alignment is incorrect on our "other" monitor!
Today, when trying to make a simple slide with motion background overlayed by an image with transparency (one of our most common background formats),
Builder stopped responding every time I added the transparency. Tried several combinations images and videos -- no luck. There was a time when
GoFish Media could be called for almost instant help, but no help now!
I continue to be mystified by Builder showing completely different text box locations in the editor and the object tools listing of L, T, W, H.
Addition (7-26-25); video background, any format; tried to add brightness effect; stopped responding every time! I doubt that there is an answer forthcoming.
