How to design a scorebug

A scorebug is the score bar that sits over your stream. Your organization can design its own, with your colors, shapes and images around the live clock, stage, team names and scores, and then choose it for each event.

Before you start

• You need to be a manager of your organization to design scorebugs.
• Choosing one for an event needs the right to edit that event’s settings.

Steps

1. In your organization’s menu, click Scorebugs.

   

2. Click Scorebug hinzufügen.

   

3. Give the scorebug a name and click Erstellen. Leave Canvas-Breite (px) and Canvas-Höhe (px) as they are unless your stream is a different size.

   

4. The editor opens with a starter scorebug. To add a shape, click Rechteck hinzufügen on the left. It appears near the top left of the canvas, selected.

   

5. Under Eigenschaften on the right, set where it sits and its size with X-Position (px), Y-Position (px), Breite (px) and Höhe (px). You can also drag it on the canvas and pull its edges.

   

6. Pick its color with Hintergrundfarbe.

   

7. Turn off Heller Hintergrund to check your scorebug on a black canvas, as over dark video, and back on for white. The canvas is your stream’s whole picture, so the scorebug appears on your stream where it sits here.

   

8. Click Konfiguration speichern.

   

9. Open your event’s planner and click Einstellungen at the bottom of the sidebar.

   

10. Open the Allgemein tab.

    

11. In Scorebug-Overlay, choose your scorebug. Systemstandard uses your organization’s default scorebug, or Dodgeball Hub’s standard one when you haven’t set a default.

    

12. Click Alle Einstellungsänderungen speichern. The event’s scorebug overlays now show your design: see Add stream overlays to OBS.

    

In the editor

• The left panel adds what’s on your scorebug. The live elements, such as the set clock or a team’s penalty, fill in from the court’s scoreboard during the game; each one can be added once. Formen & Medien adds a rectangle, a circle, a triangle, or a picture from your computer with Bild hochladen.
• The right panel edits the selected element. Text elements have Textfarbe (Hex), Schriftstärke and Textschatten; a team name also has Logo-Position and Anzeigen (its name or its Kürzel). Element sperren (Ziehen/Größenänderung deaktivieren) stops an element from moving by accident.
• The top bar renames the scorebug and zooms the canvas. Point at the question mark to see the keyboard shortcuts.
• The set clock shows on your stream only while a set timer runs.

Default and public scorebugs

• Als Standard festlegen in the editor’s top bar, or Als Standard-Scorebug für neue Events festlegen when you create it, makes it your organization’s default: every event left on Systemstandard uses it. Only one scorebug is the default at a time.
• Öffentlich, or Diesen Scorebug zur eigenständigen öffentlichen Nutzung freigeben, lets anyone choose it, under your organization’s name, on the standalone scoreboard. See Use the standalone scoreboard.
• The Scorebugs list shows a preview of each scorebug. You can delete one only when no event has chosen it.
