ActivateMR boards curate data from research you have run across InsightHub to display interesting findings and create discussion points.
ActivateMR can be accessed via: Back Room > Analysis Tools > ActivateMR
Once you have created your board, you will be taken to a blank page where you can begin adding tiles.
There are some common tile sizes you may use. The tile size can be altered by dragging the bottom right corner of the tile (circled below) to create the size you require. The dimensions of common tile sizes are listed below (measured in pixels):
- Single height, single width – 326.75w x 244.56h
- Single height, double width – 665.5w x 244.56h
- Double height, single width – 326.75w x 501.13h
- Double height, double width – 665.5w x 501.13h
The tile sizes may be useful to refer back to when sizing an image to add to your board, for example
By default, there are 4 tiles across the top of the board, click into the + button in the middle of a tile to add your content. As you add tiles, the option to add an extra row will appear automatically.
Tile types you can create are:
- VideoMR
- NumbersMR
- Text
- Image
Once you have content in the tile, you have the following options:
- Edit the content - by clicking into the main body of the tile
- Add/edit the title – using the pen icon in the top left of the tile, you can set a title for each tile. The exception is VideoMR and NumbersMR tables, which will automatically pull through the title for you
- Move the tile – using the 4 arrows/cross icon in the top right of the tile
- Leave a comment – using the speech bubble icon in the top right of the tile
- Delete the tile – using the cog icon in the top right of the tile
- Resize the tile – using the arrow in the bottom right of the tile
- Comments – using the cog icon, you can use the slider to switch commenting on and off for that tile
Note: Where tiles are left blank, these tiles are automatically removed in any ActivateMR board sharing links. This can be checked by viewing the board via the 'Preview' button.
New tiles will appear underneath the ones you have populated so that you can fill your board with your required content. Content can be pulled from various sources and projects to create your board.
If you wish to change the content of a tile, you do not need to create a new tile. You can simply click the settings cog icon in the top right of the tile, then click 'change tile content - set' to update this.
Adding Sections
Once you have started to add your tiles, you can also add sections, to provide structure and allow headings to be added
To add a section, click the settings cog icon to the right, just above your tile row.
Then, click to 'add section above' or 'add section below'.
Click the pen icon to edit your section title.
Once set, click into the same settings cog you clicked to add the section, then click section style. You will then have the option to set heading colour, background colour, heading text size and heading font (including any custom fonts saved within your InsightHub). You will also be able to set section break preferences.
Finally, click 'save', and any changes will be applied to your ActivateMR section header and section break.
