Opening and Saving Custom Billboards

Adding Objects to a Billboard

WiseScript Package Editor Reference
(WiseScript Package Editor only) You can use the Screen page to specify the background
that displays during the installation.
When you save a billboard from the Custom Billboard Editor, you are saving the entire
blue screen area, including the text, lines, shapes, and graphics that are on the screen.
When you save a billboard as a separate file, it is assigned the extension .GRF.
(WiseScript Package Editor only) After you create the billboards for your installation, you
can select the ones to display and arrange their order on the Billboards page.
You can access the commands for creating, saving, exporting, and importing billboards
from the File menu in the Custom Billboard Editor. There is no New command on the File
menu because a new blank billboard screen appears when you open the Custom
Billboard Editor.
The commands on the File menu are:
Open
Opens a billboard from a .GRF file, importing it to the current installation.
Save As
Saves a billboard to a .GRF file so you can share the file with others, or re-use it on
future projects.
Exit Without Saving
Returns to Script Editor without saving the changes made to the billboard.
Save Changes and Exit
Saves the changes made to the billboard and returns to Script Editor saving the
graphic as part of the installation. It is only saved as a separate file if you use Save
As.
The Custom Billboard Editor is object-based and lets you add different types of objects.
