If you choose to design a new customized template, please click on the blank Layout Editor template. The below figure shows an illustration of designing your own Layout Editor. Choose the desired tile type(s) from the left and drag and drop them to the layout view. Arranging the boxes within the display is done manually (with the mouse), using the axis and dimension fields or the editing buttons. For multiple selections of the tile types, use the Shift key.


Each box displays the Tile Types Name, Axis, and Dimension. Axis (X, Y) specifies the position of the layout where the box is placed. Dimension (W, H) sets the Width and Height of the chosen tile type. The width and height can be set as desired. However, each Tile Types has a minimum Dimension by default. For a detailed visual representation of all the available tile types, please refer to Tile Types.




This example uses eight boxes with different color categories, as discussed below.

  • The light green color indicates it's a clock (E.g., Dark Analog Clock).
  • The olive green color indicates it's a JPEG (E.g., JPEG Object).
  • The blue color is the default color for audio and video boxes (E.g., 1A Minimal and Audio – Basic).
  • The purple color indicates Text Box (E.g., Scrolling Text Box).
  • The yellow color indicates that the box is selected (E.g., 32A two rows).
  • The red color indicates that two or more boxes are overlapping and need to be fixed (E.g., 2A Clear Audio and static audio 2+2, UMD).

The below short cuts keys are also available on the Layout Editor.

  • Select a tile type, and pressing Shift + D keys duplicates the tile type in the Layout Editor.
  • Press Ctrl+Z keys to undo the changes made for the tile type in the Layout Editor.
  • Press Ctrl+Y keys to redo the changes made for the tile type in the Layout Editor.
  • Press the Delete key to delete a tile type in the Layout Editor.


At the top left, the Layout Editor has the following editing buttons.
