|
|
There no longer seems to be a way to show an announcement based on
which console you currently are displaying.
Lets say I have three different announcements.
1) First place prize : $20 Bar tab
2) Second place Prize: $10 Bar tab
3) Rebuys are now available
I have a horizontal marquee that scrolls these announcement along the
bottom of the console. For most of the tournament I want #1 and #2 to
alternate in that marquee.
But during certain blind levels, say 100-200 through 400-800, I only want the #3 announcement to scroll and nothing else.
I found a way to accomplish this in version two, but have not been able to find a way to do this in v3.
Each dashboard does not seem to have independant marquee control.
Am I missing something? or is this not currently possible? |

Wow, another thing I'm amazed that someone was actually using.
Use the announcement marquee. Have multiple announcement collections.
For the beginning of the tournament, have the console theme point at one of the collections. When you want to switch after the 400-800 level, then point to a different one.
Out of curiosity, what are the different announcements you want displayed at different points? There might be something else I'm cooking up that will accomplish the same goal. _________________ --

When we get to the 100-200 level blinds, we offer a drink special.
At that point, anyone that buys a mixed drink from the bar recieves
"bonus chips." essentially a rebuy option.
At that time I would like to be able to scroll the name of the bartender,
and any specific drink that is being promoted
this marquee would be up from 100-200 blind through the 400-800 blinds.
after that point, everything is back to normal
Before and after the "drink special" blinds, I am trying to scroll basic
information about website, other dates and locations we play, etc. |
