arrangement of zones.

different layout entirely, but it does take longer to refresh the screen.

1. Click the Specials tab.
2. From the Change Layout drop-down list, select the new layout you want to use.
3. Click the button.
4. Make sure the Change Layout command appears in the right place in the playlist.

selection.

3.6 Colors

Use the Media > Colors page to set the colors the iCOMPEL applies to fonts, backgrounds, and other items.
When you create a new layout or a new table, the iCOMPEL automatically creates new color items:
For layouts, the color items are for the text foreground, the text background, and the letterbox background.
For tables, the color items are for the text foreground and text background.
The iCOMPEL names color items in the format Layout name: Color item. For example, if you create a new layout named
'Holidays', the iCOMPEL creates the following color items for it:
Text foreground – Holidays: Text
Text background – Holidays: Background
Letterbox – Holidays: Letterbox
You can modify the properties for these color items as needed.
