Hey everyone.

So I'm just trying to understand something about full DMD files and what displays on the screen. It's no big deal I'm just trying to understand why some things display and some things don't. Did I turn you away yet? LOL

So I have a three screen display on AtGames Pinball. I use PinUp Popper.

So here's my question. So when I'm looking for a FullDMD display for a table, 2 things happen. I'll find a display that has a blank box where you can place a DMD. I uncheck the use external display on a couple where I want to only use backglass scoring.

So what I've noticed is that when I want to have something in my FullDMD and I choose the one with the blank box, sometimes it'll display the blank box with nothing in it which I totally understand. Sometimes though, it'll display the name of the table.

I'm not sure if this has something to do with the name of the table file, but say for instance on the table Xenon, one VPX table, it showed the Xenon name in the full DMD box, and if I try another Xenon table creation, it's blank.


So I guess I'm trying to understand what causes the name to display in the full DMD box? From my testing like I said it seems to be the individual table that I'm using but just was wanting of someone who knows about this might explain.

Hoping this makes sense and I appreciate your help!

Can you post a pic?  Not really understanding what you're seeing and what the issue is.
