Interactive Elements in the Layout Builder

The Layout Builder lets users create designs with multiple content types all sharing the same screen space by placing multiple Elements together.

Elements are drag-and-drop content types that can be configured for various use cases.
Some Elements are interactive or allow interactivity through their normal behavior.

For a list of ALL elements please see Layout And Message Builder Elements
For more details on how to use the Builder Tool to design a Layout see Using The Builder Tool For Layouts Or Messages

Quick Actions in the Layout Builder for User Interactivity

Quick Actions allows designers to embed interactive logic and macros into any Layout.
This is done using the UI to select an element, configure a trigger, and then the desired response.

This interactivity is done by applying instructions to elements that already exist in a Layout without changing to a whole new layout.

Common Use Cases of Quick Actions:

• Toggling visibility of a set message or element

• Sending a command to an element like Playlist or Carousel to change which item is displaying

• Refresh Data

• Trigger animations

For more details on how to configure a Quick Action see the Quick Actions for Interactivity in a Layout or Message

Data Triggers for Automated Reactions

Data Triggers allow designers to embed reactive logic into any Layout controlled dynamically by the information provided in a Data Integration.
This is done using the UI to select an element, configure a Data Trigger, and then the desired response.

This type of change does not require any direct user action, but is programmed into the Layout to interact with your stream of data

Common Use Cases of Data Triggers:

• Changing formatting of text to draw attention to KPI values

• Toggling visibility of a set message or element to drive specific actions

Kiosk Builder

Korbyt Kiosk Builder allows you to build a collection of Layouts/templates that end users can navigate through using interactive touch screens or keyboard/mouse.

Unlike Quick actions that stay on 1 layout and toggle items Kiosk allow the user to move through multiple “pages” of layouts offering more customization and variation.

Kiosk builder includes the ability to enable and configure Interactivity Analytics to provide feedback on user engagement.

For more details on how to use the system, see the Kiosk Builder article

Optics

Optics is a subscription-based Korbyt feature for Digital Signage that uses a USB camera attached to a media player to interact with end users by changing the playlist that is being displayed.

Content can be set to change based on the number of Detected users and Dwell-Time.

Collected data is text-only and used for content automation purposes, and Analytics on user engagement.
