Clevertouch | CleverLauncher | Create A Launcher

The CleverLive platform offers a large library of Launcher templates that users can import and edit as required. However to create your own customised Launcher the best method is to start with a blank canvas ( presentation ) and access the suite of tools the CleverLive editor has to offer.

1. To start, navigate to the Launchers home screen on CleverLive website by clicking on Interfaces on the top navigation bar followed by “Launchers” in the list of shown options. This can also be found at the following URL: www.cleverlive.com/files/launchers
2. Click on the “Create New” icon found on the sub top navigation bar to create a new blank Launcher.
   
   
   
3. In the box enter a name for your Launcher in the text box provided and then select the dimensions from the drop down menu provided. The default dimensions provided ( 1920 x 1080 ) should be ideal for use on any CleverTouch screen, for a 4k alternative select 3840 x 2160. These dimensions cannot be changed after the Launcher has been created.
   
   
4. You should now have a blank canvas in the CleverLive editor. To enable editing, click on the padlock icon found in the sub top navigation bar to turn on edit mode.
   

Within the CleverLive editor every element that will be displayed on the screen are categorized into zones. Zones are shown as layers on the left navigation column of the editor. Our guide will cover the 3 key types of zones for Launcher functionality to get you started : Images, App Elements, CleverTouch Inputs.

Lock Editor

Once satisfied with all the changes made to your customised Launcher the final step is to lock in all changes made. This will trigger changes made to become active on the Launcher when assigned to a CleverTouch screen.

To do this, from the editor, simply click on the padlock icon in the editor toolbar. This should change the padlock icon from an unlocked to a locked position.

To edit the Launcher further in the future or make any additional changes you can return to the editor and click on the padlock again to continue editing.
