You Tell Us! > Feature Request: Change Display Properties for Each Display For A Single Item

Hello! One feature that would be awesome to see added to SongShow would be the ability to change the display properties for how a program item will be displayed on each different monitor.

On our lower third output, we have images defaulted to show only in the top half so that the lower third will be blank when the title graphic is up. Occasionally, we want to show images during the sermon, which becomes difficult since we can't tell SongShow to show them full screen on that output unless we change the setting for all images.

Another use case I thought of for our setup would be to allow us to display the main screen graphic in the top half where it wouldn't show online (because of the way we have that output cropped in our switcher), and then put a lower 3rd specific version as the background of the slide to show up online so we'd only have to click once to fire those slides.

I hope this makes sense and I'd be happy to answer any questions. Thanks!

Hi Brad.  Thanks for your input.

To clarify - I assume you are referring to the Display Settings rather than Slide Properties in the above description.  Slide Properties can be set in the program or globally for specific output windows enabled but Display Settings are set system wide and are not able to be set to a specific object. 

It is possible that some of what you described is possible through creative use of Slide Properties per output.  I suggest you contact the Support Team for specific guidance.

Hi George,

I am indeed not talking about the Display Settings. I'm referring to the Slide Properties where you can select background, formatting, etc. If I didn't explain it well, what I'd ultimately like is for the same dialog box with properties for all displays to pop up when I right click and select "Slide Properties" as when you select the Slide Properties from the menu and are given the option to change the settings for each display. I'd like to be able to override the default slide properties I have set on specific items on each screen, not just the main screen.
