Module Shape

Select a shape for the screen modules in the array

Tile Flat

Creates rectangular-shaped modules

Tile Cap

Creates rectangular-shaped modules with frosted caps

Disk Flat

Creates round modules

Disk Cap

Creates round modules with frosted caps

Tube

Creates tube-shaped modules

Dome

Creates dome-shaped modules

Width

Specifies the width of each module in the array

Height

For tiled arrays, sets the height (length) of each module in the array

Cap Depth

For capped arrays, sets the depth of each module’s cap

Tube Orientation

For tube arrays, specifies whether the tubes are oriented vertically or horizontally

Length

For tube arrays, sets the length of one of the tube modules

Build Array Based On

Module Counts and Spacing

Sets the size of the entire LED array based on the number of modules specified in the horizontal and vertical directions, as well as the horizontal and vertical spacing distance set between the modules

Overall Dimensions and Spacing

Sets the size of the entire LED array based on the specified array width and height, as well as the horizontal and vertical spacing between the modules; the screen count is automatically calculated

Overall Dimensions and Module Counts

Sets the size of the entire LED array based on the specified array width and height, as will as the number of modules specified in the horizontal and vertical directions; the spacing is automatically calculated

Array Width/Height

Specifies the width and height of the entire LED array, when the array is based on overall dimensions

Horizontal/Vertical Spacing

Specifies the spacing between modules in the horizontal and vertical directions, when the array is based on spacing parameters

Horizontal/Vertical Count

Specifies the number of modules in the horizontal and vertical directions, when the array is based on the module counts

Module Total

Displays the total calculated number of modules in the array

Width/Height (Calc.)

Displays the calculated width and height of the array, when determined by module count and spacing

H/V Spacing (Calc.)

Displays the calculated module spacing in the horizontal and vertical directions, when the array is determined by the overall dimensions and module counts

H/V Count (Calc.)

Displays the total number of modules in the horizontal and vertical directions, when the array size is determined by the overall dimensions and module spacing

Pixels Per Module H/V

Specifies the number of horizontal or vertical pixels for each module (for calculation purposes only; does not affect the module display)

Array Size (Pixels)

Displays the total number of pixels for the entire LED array

Base Structure

Select a base structure for the array, or select None to display only the module(s); modify the appearance of the structure by selecting Class LED Array Parts and then editing the structure class

Blocks

Creates a structure of individual blocks bases for each module

Frame

Creates a single frame for the entire array

Curtain

Creates a single background for the array

Web

Creates a webbed structure behind the modules

Vert. Strips

Places the LED modules in vertical columns

Horiz. Strips

Places the LED modules in horizontal rows

None

Does not create a base structure for the array; displays only the LED modules

Base Width

Specifies the width of blocks, vertical or horizontal strips, or the entire frame

Base Height

Specifies the height of blocks, vertical or horizontal strips, or the entire frame

Base Depth

Specifies the depth of blocks, vertical or horizontal strips, or the entire frame

Horizontal Inset

Sets the horizontal distance (margin) between the horizontal edge of the base structure and the array

Vertical Inset

Sets the vertical distance (margin) between the vertical edge of the base structure and the array

Pleat Width

For curtain or web structures, specifies the pleat width of the curtain (2D only for web structures)

Pleat Depth

For curtain or web structures, specifies the pleat depth of the curtain (2D only for web structures)

Webbing Width

For web structures, sets the width of the connecting web segments

Tilt

Specifies the tilt angle of the screen array

Edit Array Image (Renderworks required)

Opens the Edit Screen Image dialog box

Array Image

Displays the name of the current screen image

Simple 3D

Creates a single textured 3D polygon to represent the screen modules; this speeds rendering when each module does not need to be shown individually

Class LED Array Parts

When first selected, automatically creates classes for the different parts of the LED screen and, if selected, the base structure., for appearance and visibility control. This allows portions of the screen or base to be set to visible, grayed, or invisible. Once the classes have been created, this check box toggles whether class visibility changes apply to the selected LED array.

Parts Classes Prefix

When screen parts are classed, creates a prefix for the class names so that they are sorted together

Note

Adds a note, which can be placed on the drawing with the Text Options 

Text Options

Opens the Text Options dialog box, to enable the display and format the text of labels; see Formatting Video Screen Object Labels

Default Text Positions

Restores text labels to their default positions

Update

Updates the object when changes have been made to the Object Info palette parameters
