Configuring Screens

This chapter explains all the settings available when creating or editing a scoring screen.

If you’re new, follow the sections from top to bottom. If you’re updating an existing screen, jump directly to the section you need.

1. Basic Configuration

Screen Name

Give your screen a clear and descriptive name so you can easily recognize it later in the admin panel.
Use names that describe the screen's location, purpose, or audience.

Examples:

  • Hall A - Scoreboard
  • Stream Overlay – Zone 2

Competition Zones and Panels

Select which competition zones and judging panels this screen should display data from.
You can:

  • Select a single panel
  • Combine multiple panels in the same zone
  • Mix panels across different zones

This allows you to display anything from a single apparatus to the combined results of an entire competition hall on one screen.

Screen Type and Design

Choose how the screen will be displayed:

  • Scoreboard — A full-screen display designed for in-venue monitors and projection screens. Best for audiences watching the competition live.
  • Overlay — A transparent layer intended for use with OBS or other streaming software. Overlays are composited on top of a video feed, so they have no background of their own.

After selecting the screen type, use Design Template to choose one of the 2 design options available.

Elevated Cards:

Optimized Font:

Gradient Effect:

Glass Effect:

Screen Language

Set a specific language for this screen.

  • If not set, it uses the competition’s language as default.
  • Useful for multilingual events or separate broadcast audiences.

Supported languages:
English, Nederlands, Português, Русский, Français, עברית

2. Screen Behavior (Timing & Flow)

2.1 Screen Durations

These settings control how long each view is shown before the screen automatically moves to the next one.

2.1.a Ranking Page Duration

Controls how long each ranking page is displayed.
Minimum: 5 seconds.

If the ranking has multiple pages, each page is shown for the same amount of time.
Example: 3 pages × 5 seconds = 15 seconds total.

A visual timer is built into the competition logo: a yellow fill rises from the bottom of the logo to the top over the course of the configured duration, giving viewers and operators an at-a-glance indication of how much time remains on the current view.

2.1.b Result Duration

Sets how long a result view is shown when a new score is submitted or manually triggered.

This applies whether or not the ranking is visible, you can still force a manual override result to the screen even when the ranking is hidden.
The duration only takes effect on the result view and the exercise view. The same setting also exists on the display controller.
Minimum: 5 seconds.

2.1.c Current Exercise Duration

Controls how long the current exercise information is displayed in the automatic loop.

This value can be set to 0, which causes the view to persist on screen indefinitely until the exercise is approved or a manual override occurs.

This is useful in venues where operators want the athlete's information to remain displayed throughout the full duration of a routine.

2.1.d Automatic Display Loop

Configure the sequence of views the screen cycles through automatically. By default, new screens are set to a Ranking and All Sponsors loop.

To configure the loop:

  1. Click the Edit button.
  2. Add a new loop config by clicking the Add button.
  3. To edit or select the proper view, double-click the view name, select the one you prefer, and change the duration as needed.
  4. To clear the loop, delete all the views and click Save .

  • Ranking — Displays the current ranking. Duration can be set to Auto (uses the Ranking Page Duration from Screen Durations settings) or a custom value.
  • All Sponsors — Rotates through all configured sponsor logos.
  • Sponsors Level 1 / 2 / 3 — Displays only sponsors assigned to the specified sponsorship tier.
  • Organisation Logo — Shows the hosting organisation's logo.
  • Competition Logo — Shows the competition logo.
  • Next Exercise — Displays the upcoming athlete and exercise information.
  • Current Exercise — Displays the currently active athlete and exercise information.
  • Start/Stop — Shows the most recently started or stopped exercise. A green background indicates an exercise in progress; red indicates a completed exercise.
  • Latest Incoming Scores — Displays the most recently submitted scores across all selected panels in sequence. The number of entries shown per page is determined by the Number of Exercise Lines setting.
  • HD and ToF or Synchro — Trampoline only. Shows Horizontal Displacement and Time of Flight, or the Synchronization score for synchro events.

Loop entries are displayed in the order they are configured. Adjust the order and durations to match the pacing and priorities of your event.

2.1.e Delay Score Until End of Exercise

When multiple exercises are running simultaneously across different panels, this option holds the score or ranking display until all panels assigned to this screen have finished their current exercise. This prevents the screen from showing partial results mid-routine when multiple athletes are competing at the same time.

Important: This feature requires start/stop timing to be enabled on the relevant competition zones. Without it, the system has no signal for when an exercise ends and scores will always appear immediately.

  • No zones have start/stop — Option has no effect; scores appear immediately.
  • Some zones have start/stop — Only those zones delay their scores; others show immediately.
  • All zones have start/stop — All scores are held until every panel finishes.

To enable start/stop:

  1. Go to the Administration section from the sidebar.
  2. Then navigate to Scoring & Ranking Configuration.
  3. Under Configuration per Zone, enable start/stop for the relevant competition zone.

3. Display & Appearance Options

3.1 Visual Elements

3.1.a Show Background

Toggles the background image on this screen. When enabled, the screen uses either the globally configured background or a custom one set under Custom Scoring Background.

Displays the competition logo alongside the yellow fill timer. When disabled, the logo and its timing indicator are hidden. This is useful for overlays or layouts where that space is needed for other content.

3.1.c Show Green Background

Replaces the screen background with a solid green chroma-key color. Use this when compositing the screen output in OBS or other video production software with a green screen filter.

3.2 Ranking Space-Savers

3.2.a Hide Bottom-left Information to Increase Name

Hides the athlete's club or organisation name from all views on this screen, giving more space to display the athlete's name. Useful when organisation information is irrelevant or when screen space is limited.

3.2.b Hide Bottom-right Information to Increase Score

Hides the score gap column that normally shows the difference between each participant and the leader, giving more space to display the score. Useful when the gap is not meaningful to the audience or when a cleaner layout is preferred.

3.3 Ranking Configuration

3.3.a Maximum Number of Ranking Pages

Limits the number of ranking pages shown in the automatic loop.

  • Set to None to display all pages with no limit.
  • Use this setting to keep display time manageable in large competitions. For example, limiting to the top 2 pages so that the loop doesn't dwell on lower-ranked entries.

3.3.b Number of Ranking Lines

Controls how many participants are shown per page in exercise list views (e.g. ranking, start list, latest scores).

  • Choose from 4, 6, or 8 lines per page.
  • Choose a number depending on screen size, viewing distance, and readability requirements.

3.4 Appearance Customization

3.4.a Custom Scoring Background

Upload a background image specific to this screen.

This overrides the global background set at the competition level, allowing different screens to have distinct visual identities within the same event.

3.4.b Enable Custom Screen Colors

Activate per-screen color overrides. When enabled, the settings below replace the global theme colors for this screen only.

3.4.c Font Colors

Customize the text colors used on this screen:

  • Title Color — Applied to scoreboard headers and key labels in overlays.
  • Primary Text Color — Applied to the majority of on-screen text. The background color adjusts automatically to ensure readable contrast.
  • Secondary Text Color — Applied to supporting or de-emphasized text elements.

These settings override the general theme colors.

3.4.d Gradient Colors

Customize the gradient used on this screen. This only applies to screens using the Glass Effect overlay and the Elevated Cards scoreboard template.

3.4.e Margins (Top, Right, Bottom, Left)

Shift the screen position in any direction by up to 200 pixels in either direction.

Use this to align the display within a specific area of a monitor or projection surface when the default centering doesn't match the physical setup.

3.5 Score Display Behavior

3.5.a Show New Score

When a score is submitted and approved, the screen interrupts the current loop and displays a result view for the configured Result Duration. Once the duration elapses, the loop resumes. This is the simplest score display option.

3.5.b Show Ranking with New Score

When a score is approved, the screen plays an animated ranking sequence: the newly scored entry animates up or down to its final rank, giving viewers a clear sense of movement in the standings.
This is followed by the result view for the configured duration before the loop resumes.

3.5.c Show Leaderboard Flow

When a score is approved, this option triggers a leaderboard comparison — interrupting the loop and resuming after the sequence ends.
It works on its own, without requiring any other new score option to be enabled.

Requirements:

  • Applies to the last competition phase only.
  • At least 4 exercises must have been scored.
  • The new score must be placed in the top 4.

On its own, the sequence shows only the leaderboard:

  1. Leaderboard view — Compares the approved score against the current highest score.

When combined with other options, the sequence extends automatically:

  1. Leaderboard view.
  2. Ranking view (optional — requires "Show Ranking with New Score") — Shows the updated standings.
  3. Result view (optional — requires "Show New Score") — Displays the final result for the configured duration.
  4. Time of Flight (ToF) (optional — requires "Show New Score", Trampoline competitions with QIRA enabled) — Displays an HD representation of where the athlete landed on the trampoline bed.

This sequence is designed for broadcast and high-profile competition environments where dramatic score reveals are part of the experience.

3.5.d Show Exercise Rankings

Displays per-exercise or per-pass rankings alongside the overall ranking. Not available for Trampoline disciplines.

3.5.e Show Current Exercise

When start/end timing is enabled for a set of exercises and the play button is activated, the athlete's information is shown on screen for the configured Current Exercise Duration.

If that duration is set to 0, the exercise info stays on screen until the score is approved.
