Creating, editing and deleting rails
Adding rails
To add a rail to a layout:
- On the Rails Builder page:
- To add the first rail to a new layout, select the layout and click the ADD RAIL... button.
- To add a new rail to an existing layout, select the layout and in the Rails panel, click ADD NEW .
- On the Create New Rail page, select the required locale, and referring to the table below, enter and select the required details.
- If required, you can specify Additional Properties for the rail. Click ADD PROPERTY and enter your custom Key/Value pairs.
- Click ADD RAIL ; you can now add content to the rail. Alternatively, to add content to the rail straight away, click the ADD RAIL CONTENT button and start at step 2.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Rail Name | Enter a name for the rail. |
| Rail Title | Enter an optional title for the rail. You can add different titles for different geographical locations. |
| Layout | Select whether the image inside the rail is displayed in landscape or portrait format. This overrides the settings made in the template. |
Additional Properties
These enable you to apply additional formatting to Rails as per your organisation's requirements.
Some examples of how to use Key/Value pairs are described in the table below.
| Key | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| "background-image" | "/IM/cowboy_background.jpg" | This might be used to add a background image to the rail. |
| "play-trailers-on-hover" | "true" | This could pay the trailer automatically when the user runs the mouse over the image. |
Key/Value pairs are created by clients and are not controlled by NAGRA.
