DEX Studio® - Functionalities
DEX Studio: Professional Template Editor
The visual design environment integrated in DEX Suite to create dynamic, automated content connected to real-time data.
-
Advanced WYSIWYG editor with support for animations, bindings and datalinks.
-
Template development with layer-based architecture, timeline and reusable components.
-
Native integration with DEX Manager for publishing, versioning and remote deployment.
-
Support for variables, external APIs, dynamic fonts and responsive formats.
-
Designed for professional digital signage environments and 24/7 continuous playback.
Visual creation and modular structure
Build content layouts with precision and full control over each element:
-
Layer-based design interface with direct object manipulation.
-
Hierarchical definition of groups, components and interactive areas.
-
Editable properties per object (position, scale, opacity, blend, delay, easing).
-
Support for assets in JPG, PNG, MP4, WebP, JSON and SVG formats .
Timeline and animation system
Precise control of the visual flow and transitions of each element:
-
Timeline management by keyframes with input, output and looping animations.
-
Customizable interpolations with speed, easing and delay curves per frame.
-
Non-linear synchronization between visual elements, layers and audio.
-
Real-time preview with cross-platform rendering support.
3. Dynamic content through Bindings
Turn any element into an editable component or connected to external data:
-
Binding fields for text, images or numeric values modifiable from DEX Manager.
-
Dynamic content update without the need to edit the original template.
-
Definition of formatting parameters, conditional styles and units.
-
Support for mathematical expressions and global variables.
4. Data integration through Datalinks
Connects the template with external sources of information in real time:
-
Support for REST APIs, JSON, Google Sheets, RSS and CSV files.
-
Configuration of paths, update intervals and complex data structures.
-
Fallback conditions to ensure content continuity.
-
Direct association of data fields with visual components of the template.
5. Interactive and logical components
Incorporates logic and behavior without the need for programming:
-
Definition of triggers and conditional actions (by time, interaction or external event).
-
Animation playback, scene change or data update by event.
-
Compatibility with IoT sensors, GPIO inputs or DEX IoT data for Phygital experiences.
-
Integration with external systems through webhooks and configurable endpoints.
6. Advanced resource management
Manage all visual elements from a unified environment:
-
Centralized library of reusable images, videos, fonts and styles.
-
Version control and automatic synchronization with the DEX Suite cloud.
-
Asset locking and visual inheritance to maintain consistency between templates.
-
Automatic asset optimization to improve performance and loading.
