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 Añadir un Scorebug.

   

3. Give the scorebug a name and click Crear. Leave Anchura del lienzo (px) and Altura del lienzo (px) as they are unless your stream is a different size.

   

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

   

5. Under Propiedades on the right, set where it sits and its size with Posición X (px), Posición Y (px), Ancho (px) and Altura (px). You can also drag it on the canvas and pull its edges.

   

6. Pick its color with Color de fondo.

   

7. Turn off Fondo Claro 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 Guardar configuración.

   

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

   

10. Open the General tab.

    

11. In Superposición de Scorebug, choose your scorebug. Predeterminado del Sistema uses your organization’s default scorebug, or Dodgeball Hub’s standard one when you haven’t set a default.

    

12. Click Guardar todos los cambios de configuración. 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. Formas y medios adds a rectangle, a circle, a triangle, or a picture from your computer with Subir imagen.
• The right panel edits the selected element. Text elements have Color del texto (Hex), Peso de Fuente and Sombra del texto; a team name also has Posición del Logotipo and Mostrar (its name or its Siglas). Bloquear Elemento (Desactivar Arrastre/Cambio de Tamaño) 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

• Establecer como predeterminado in the editor’s top bar, or Establecer como Scorebug predeterminado para nuevos eventos when you create it, makes it your organization’s default: every event left on Predeterminado del Sistema uses it. Only one scorebug is the default at a time.
• Público, or Hacer este Scorebug disponible públicamente para uso independiente, 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.
