TDM4 - How to Add Custom Resolutions

Introduction

With TDM Digital Signage, you can create custom resolutions that can be used for your templates and masterpage designs.

This allows you to design content for displays with non-standard or unique resolutions, such as video walls or tiled screen setups.

This guide explains how to add a custom resolution and how to make it available for use in your designs.

Requirements

To add custom resolutions, you need:

• Administrator access to the TDM Designer
