Template Editor – Circle tool

The Circle Tool allows you to add circular shapes to your template with customizable size, color, opacity, and stroke settings. If you’re using the Color Code system, you can dynamically assign colors based on a record’s category.

For example, if a record is categorized as Manager in the Project Manager, and red is the assigned color, the circle will automatically be filled with red when printing the badge. Similarly, if a record belongs to the Media category and orange is the designated color, the circle will be filled with orange.

This feature is particularly useful for designing templates with circles, rectangles, and squares set to Fill with Color Code. It ensures clear visual identification of different roles, such as Managers, Media, Volunteers, Sponsors, and more. This functionality is ideal for events, sports competitions, security environments with color-coded zones, and other scenarios where quick role recognition is essential.

Position

The Position properties define the placement and dimensions of an element within the template. Adjusting these values allows you to precisely control where an element appears and how much space it occupies.

• Left (X) – Specifies the horizontal position of the element, measured from the left edge of the template.
• Top (Y) – Specifies the vertical position of the element, measured from the top edge of the template.
• Radius – Defines the radius of the element, determining how much space it occupies.

By adjusting these properties, you can ensure elements are properly aligned and scaled within your design.

Properties

• Visible

  Determines whether the circle is displayed in the badge preview and print output. If unchecked, the circle remains in the Template but will not be printed.

• Opacity

  You can adjust the object’s opacity to one of the following levels: None, 25%, 50%, 75%, or 90%, allowing for semi-transparency effects.

• Stroke

  • Thickness

    Defines the thickness of the circle’s border. The minimum value is 0.25 mm.

  • Stroke Color

    Specifies the color of the circle’s border. You can select a color using the color picker or enter a hex code.

• Fill with Color Code

  When enabled, the circle will be filled with a dynamic color from a predefined color code field in your database.

• Fill Color

  Defines the background color of the circle. If Fill with Color Code is disabled, this color will be applied to the circle.
