Settings

What each setting in Studio's Settings tab changes on a fixture, including bay limits, shelf spacing and shelf edge labels.


Settings is the last tab of the side panel. Its settings apply to every fixture in the project, and are grouped into five sections that open and close: Fixture, Bays, Shelves, Shelf Edge Labels, and Prices and Language.

The settings change how Studio draws your fixtures. They don’t change any plan in Coplan, so share of space in Compare is unaffected.

Fixture

  • Fixture Type sets the kind of fixture drawn: Ambient Shelves, Ambient Gray Shelves, Metal Ambient Shelves, Gray Metal Ambient Shelves, Chilled Shelves, Dark Mode Chilled Shelves, Freezers or Dark Mode Freezers.
  • Visualisation Mode draws the fixture flat, 2D, or with depth, 2.5D. Not every account has it: ask your account manager.
  • Product Image Display sets how a product’s image is adjusted when it doesn’t match the shape of its facing: Contain, Fill or Stretch.
  • Fixtures Equal Heights and Fixtures Equal Widths make every fixture as tall as the tallest, or as wide as the widest, so they line up when you compare them.

Bays

  • Limit Bay Width sets every bay and shelf to the Max Bay Width, in millimetres, with its imperial equivalent below. Any shelf whose products need more room turns red.
  • Limit Bay Heights turns any bay taller than the Max Bay Height red. Nothing is resized.
  • Bays Equal Heights and Bays Equal Widths make every bay in a fixture as tall as its tallest bay, or as wide as its widest.
  • Bay Order: Low to High puts bay 1 on the left. High to Low puts it on the right.

Use the limits as a guide when you build a plan from scratch. Plans opened from Explore start with Limit Bay Width off.

Shelves

Retail Execution Mode packs products against the left of each shelf, with no space between them and their labels aligned left: the layout retailers expect. Select Activate to apply it.

  • Shelf Site Alignment: Left and Right pack products against that side of the shelf. Center spreads them across the whole shelf.
  • Shelf Space Layout sets where the spare space goes when products are centred. Between Products keeps each product’s facings together. Between Facings spaces every facing evenly.
  • Shelf Space Between Items is the smallest gap between products, and between facings of the same product.

Zero space between products shows you whether a shelf has room for more.

  • Even Out Shelves makes each shelf as tall as the tallest shelf in the same position in any bay, so shelves line up across the fixture.
  • Shelf Order: Low to High puts shelf 1 at the bottom. High to Low puts it at the top.

Shelf Edge Labels

  • Shelf Edge Label Type sets the style of the labels under products. Depending on your account, the styles are named after retailers, or are called Plain, Alternative, Different, Variant and Substitute. No Label removes the labels.
  • Shelf Edge Label Alignment places each label to the left, centre or right under its product.
  • Show Price shows or hides the price on each label. Plans opened from Explore start with prices hidden.
  • The name and price font sizes change the size of the label’s text.

Show Price and the font sizes appear only while products have labels.

Prices and Language

Currency and Price Format set how prices are written on shelf edge labels.
