How do I create a visual with the Studio?
Short answer: Open Promotions, tab âStudioâ, click âNew visualâ, choose a template, adjust what needs adjusting, then âGenerateâ.
Steps
- Open the Promotions page, then the âStudioâ tab.
- Click âNew visualâ. The âChoose a templateâ window shows the templates available, the platform's and your own, with a filter by format.
- Select a template: a âPersonalized previewâ is built with your shop's data. Click âCustomize this templateâ.
- The composer opens in âFillâ mode, with the list of fields on the left and the preview on the right. Adjust whatever you want.
- Click âGenerateâ. A message confirms the generation has started.
- The file lands under âGenerated visualsâ, on the Studio page. Use âDownloadâ to get it.
Generation runs in the background: the thumbnail goes through âQueuedâ then âGeneratingâŚâ before it is ready. You can carry on working meanwhile.
Reworking a visual you already generated
Every generated visual offers several actions:
- âReopen in the composerâ â start again from its settings to produce a variant.
- âRegenerateâ â rebuild the same file, useful if an element had failed.
- âUpdate from the current templateâ â take in the changes made to the template since the generation.
- âDeleteâ.
If a slot came out empty
The message âSome referenced elements no longer exist â their slots were left empty. Review and regenerate.â means an image the visual used has been deleted in the meantime. Reopen it, put an image back, then regenerate.
Going further
You'll know it worked when: The visual appears under âGenerated visualsâ and its âDownloadâ button gives you the file.
