Use this section to edit the appearance of a text item. For example, you can adjust the font size of a text widget in a Live Text state by choosing an Automatic or Fixed point font size for the text.

1. Time to Display Each Line (RSS Feed, MRSS Feed only): Specify how long (in seconds) to display each entry in the feed.

2. Rotation: Specify a degree of rotation for the text. This option does not rotate the dimensions of the text box, so you'll likely need to resize it manually.

3. Alignment: Specify whether the text is left-aligned, right-aligned, or centered.

4. Foreground Text Color: Select a color for the text.

5. Background text color: Check this box to include a background color for text fields.

6. Font size:

   • Select Automatic to fit the text to the height of the text field

   , or select 

   • so each text widget contains only one line of text. This is the default option.

   • Select Fixed point size to enter a value for the font size (1 - 500).

    

7. Font: Select a font for the text. The System Font option uses the default Linux font. You can use any TrueType font. Click Reset to System Font to reset the font to the default. When selecting a font file, you cannot browse to the font files in the Windows fonts folder. You will need to copy the font file to your desktop or another location and then select it using the Local Font button in BrightAuthor:connected. If the presentation's Destination is set to BrightSign Network, fonts can be accessed through the BSN.cloud by navigating to Set Text Parameters > BSN Fonts.
