Adding A New Badge

In this section of the Guided Tour we will create a new badge and optionally capture a photograph for it if a video capture board or other photo capture system has been installed.  Please note that the ID badge software will not allow you to have a total of more than 10 badges in the database, when in Demo Mode.

To add a new badge you do the following:

1.  Click on the tool bar Add a Badge  button

2.  In the pop-up dialog enter information in the 4 fields as you wish.  You can enter data by highlighting the field and starting to type.  You can move between the fields using the mouse or the TAB or ENTER keys.  If you have checked the Auto Fill In menu item under Edit, then the fields will contain the data for the current badge.  You can then change any which do not apply to the new badge.  Or you can click on the Clear button to remove all entries and start over

3.  When you are happy with the entered data click on OK

You will observe that the status line count of badges has increased by 1 and that a new badge is showing with the information you entered, but without a photograph.  Also note that an automatic selection has been done to select this badge uniquely from all the others.  The 1 in the second number on the status line indicates this.  The asterisk against the first 1 indicates that this badge has not yet been printed.
