How the Screens list previews work

The Screens list is a wall of small TVs. Each card plays that screen's real pages in order, exactly like the TV does, so you can see at a glance what every display in the lobby, the waiting room or the shop floor is showing.

Mini TV
The screen's pages, rotating in order, with a progress bar under the picture.
Name and location
The screen's name and where it hangs.
Status
Online, Offline, or Not paired yet, depending on whether a TV is paired and reachable.
... menu
Preview full screen, Pair a display (only while no TV is paired) and Delete screen.
Search and filters
Search screens finds a screen by its name or location. Status shows Active or Paused screens, Display shows screens whose TV is Online, Offline or Not paired, and Location (when your screens are in two or more places) shows one place. Clear puts every screen back.
  1. 1
    Open Signage

    Click Signage in the side menu. Every screen shows as a mini TV.

  2. 2
    Watch the rotation

    Each card cycles through its pages. The bar under it fills while a page is on screen.

  3. 3
    Check the status

    Under the screen's name, read Online, Offline or Not paired yet, and the location.

  4. 4
    Find a screen

    Type in Search screens at the right of the toolbar, or pick Status, Display or Location on the left. Click Clear to see every screen again.

  5. 5
    Open the ... menu

    Pick Preview full screen to see the screen as big as your monitor, Pair a display to connect a TV, or Delete screen.

infoMap pages in any preview - the Screens list, the editor and the full-screen preview - are drawn without the live Google map: a team spread far apart appears on a 3D-style globe with the pins where they really are, and a team in one area on a street map. The live Google map loads only on the paired TV, which keeps previews instant. Live pages in the cards refresh on their own while the list is open.
