Open your OVR in the editor. The design settings are in the panel on the right, and the preview on the left updates as you go. Click Publish when you're happy, so visitors see your changes.
Banner (Header)
The Header section sets the top of your OVR.
Display Banner: turn on to show a banner at the top.
Banner Height: drag the slider to set how much of the screen the banner takes up.
Cover Image: upload an image, paste an image link with URL, or click Browse to pick one of the images, alternate views or installation views already in the OVR.
Enable Scroll Effect: adds a gentle motion as visitors scroll. It may crop your image a little.
Overlay, Color Overlay and Opacity: lay a see-through color over the banner and choose how strong it is.
Horizontal and Vertical Text Alignment: place the title and subtitle on the banner.
Display Date: show the exhibition dates.
If you haven't added a cover image yet, the banner stays grey. That's a good time to try out your title placement and overlay.
Layout and background
Background Color: click the color dot to pick a color.
Grid Columns: show 1, 2, 3 or 4 works per row. One or two columns suit large works. Three or four feel more like a fair wall.
Artwork Alignment: line the works up on the left or in the center. New OVRs start centered.
The order of the works comes from the inventory list the OVR is built from. To change the order, reorder the list.
Text formatting
Set the font, size, color, bold and italic for each kind of text:
Header: the title at the top.
Subheading: the line under the title.
Body: descriptions and other text.
Caption: the text under each work.
Click More options for letter spacing, line height and uppercase. To use your own fonts, click Add custom fonts at the bottom of the panel. See Editing Custom Fonts in Settings.
Save your design as a template
Click Save Template at the top of the editor to make this OVR's settings the starting point for every new OVR. This includes the header, layout and background, text formatting and artwork settings, such as Show prices when sold. OVRs you already made don't change.
The button in the confirm window says Save Organization Template or Save Account Template. Which one you see depends on Settings > Online Viewing Rooms > Template source.
To copy one OVR's design to a single new OVR instead, use Duplicate. See Duplicate an Online Viewing Room (OVR).
