Configure the screen layout that the customer will see during the transaction. First, you need to connect a second monitor to your workstation, which will be displayed to the client. Click on  Customer display  and select one of the available default SOFT1  Themes: The areas of the customer display (fields, video, photo, hltm) will be automatically filled in with the layout that will appear on the monitor as well.  The  customer display  comes automatically activated, with the selection of a Theme. Click on the parameter to disable this feature. You can configure the areas layout with a simple drag & drop. Alternatively, to switch e.g. the  video area  to the  photo area ,  click on the  Video  area,  click  Switch to  and select the  Photo  value. By clicking on each area, the fields of the screen are displayed, filled with the default values of the selected topic, which can be modified. See below in detail: 1. Fields In the  Fields  area you can select the layout of the documents fields (height, number of lines), set  Borders  between them, and/or add new fields (e.g. ITELINES.QTY1, ITELINES.PRICE). 2.  Video In the  Video  area, you can add an  .mp4  video file, which will appear on the monitor, as well as set the  height  of the video on the screen. Click  Open  and select a file from your workstation.  3. Photo In the  Photo  area you can select the image file(s) ( .jpg ,  .jpeg , . jpe ,  .jfif ,  .png ) you want to appear on the monitor, as well as specify the  height  of the photo on the screen. Click  Open  and select the file(s) from your workstation.   Select more than one photo, to create a  slide show. 4. HTML In the  HTML  area you can either enter a web url of a page,  or  create your own Html page, that will appear on the monitor. Select one of the following options: In the  URL  field, type the web url of the page you want to appear. Alternatively, click  Open  and select an .html file from your workstation. In the  HTML Body  field, enter the body of the HTML page you have designed. 5. Grid The  Grid area  provides all the options available in the corresponding area for the POS Monitor. Therefore, you can define settings for the way the lines of the document (and/or the header) will be displayed in the Customer Screen. Example See in the example below, how to design a customer display that includes both  field lines  of the document and the  photo  of your choice: Select a customer display  Theme  that includes the photo area, or configure the areas appropriately, and then: specify the  fields  you want to display on the monitor (in our example we selected the total value of the document and the item description), select the  photo  you want to display on the monitor, from your workstation.
