Description of the Situation
Tables can be used as content for devices. This article describes in detail how to work with this type of content within the SmartPlayer platform.
Algorithm of Actions
To use this type of content, the user must register or log in to the SmartPlayer personal account.
The next step is to go to the “Content” section of the personal account.
Next, select the content type — “Tables”.
The main page displays all available content of this type. The following actions are also available on this page:
- Creating new table-format content.
- Editing existing table-format content.
Creating new content
A new table is created in the personal account by clicking the “Add table” button.
After clicking this button, the page interface changes. The page displays:
- column and row selection grid;
- parameters for configuring the table, divided into separate categories.
Table size configuration
To correctly render the table grid settings, go to the “Table size” parameter and configure the following table parameters:
- name — manually enter the table name;
- number of rows — enter a numeric value for rows;
- number of columns — enter a numeric value for columns;
- row height — specify the height value in pixels for each row (select “Fixed” from the list). Default value — automatic;
- row width — specify the width value in pixels for each row (select “Fixed” from the list). Default value — automatic.
After configuring the table size, the user must go to the grid and select a cell. Further parameter configuration will apply only to the selected cell in the grid.
Text settings
The parameter list contains the “Text” section, which controls how text is displayed in cells. The following text settings are available (described left-to-right, top-to-bottom):
- font selection;

- text alignment;
- text position;
- bold text style;
- italic text style;

- cell text;
- checkbox “Display as QR code”;
- text movement direction (select from the list. Does not work when the checkbox above is enabled);
- text movement speed (adjusted using a scale with a numeric speed value);
