Zoning

The Zoning app divides your screen into multiple customized zones to maximize screen effectiveness. 

Using the Zoning App

1. Log into Enplug.
2. Click the Apps drop-down menu at the top of your dashboard, then select the Zoning App. 
   • If it's the first time you've used the Zoning app, you'll be prompted to build your layout. 
3. Select Add Zoning Layout or select the name of an existing layout to edit.
4. Name your Zoning layout at the bottom of the screen.
5. Choose your desired layout from the templates at the top of the screen.

 Note: Ensure you use the correct layout for your portrait or landscape screen. 

Layout Options

The default Zoning layouts are customizable. Once you choose a basic template from the top of the screen, it can be edited to fit your needs.

Notes:

• Each Layout is divided into Zones.
• Zones contain Widgets which are apps that fill a zone. 
• The Main Zone is where the apps from your Dynamic App Playlist will rotate on the screen.
• A Main Zone can contain multiple Tickers which scroll or display static rows of data on your screen.

Editing Zones

Within a Zone, you can do the following:

• Click-and-drag the zone dividers to change the resolution.
• Set a specific resolution by hovering over the resolution notes in the middle of the zone and Edit the values.
• Divide a zone by moving your mouse up-and-down to split horizontally or left to right to split vertically, then click the Divide button that appears.
• Delete a zone by hovering over and clicking the button.
• Drag-and-drop your zones to swap their places after adding Widgets. Hover over the zone, then click-and-drag the button, dropping it where you want it to move.

Duplicating a Zoning Layout

If you’d like to duplicate a Zoning layout, you can do so by creating an independent copy or keeping the duplicate linked to the original.

Choosing an Independent copy will make a duplicate that isn’t linked to the original layout. This means any changes made to the copy won’t affect the original. Choosing a Connected copy will make a duplicate that remains linked to the original layout. This means any changes made to content or widgets in the duplicate layout will also be reflected in the original.

To duplicate a Zoning layout:

1. Log into Enplug.
2. Click the Apps dropdown in the top menu and navigate to the Zoning app.
3. Locate the desired layout and, in the Duplicate column, click the copy icon.
4. Select Independent copy (Unlinked Content) or Connected copy (Linked content).
5. Click Continue.
6. Select the Display Group(s) you'd like the layout sent to.
7. Click Save Changes.

You’ll now see the duplicate listed in your layouts with copy added to the original name (EX: Zoning #1 copy).
