Automated Production User Mode

The top of those two highlighted fields is the Automated Production User Mode menu. There are three modes:

  1. One
  2. One +
  3. Fill Page

One, works as Automated Production has worked thus far and allows a single asset to be placed on the page. This mode is not automated other than showing how the BLOX Total CMS client for Adobe InDesign ranks assets for placement and selects the page placement location. I.E. It is something you would use to learn the system.

One +: expands upon the above and automatically re-opens the Asset Manger after placing an asset. Once the page has been filled, the Asset Manager won't re-open. Again, it is learning too.

Fill Page: This does as the name implies, it will automate the placement of assets until the page is full or until the page's openings are not large enough to hold any of the budgeted assets. This is Automated Production as it was intended.
