Showcase
Run a fullscreen portfolio or flash slideshow on a tablet or TV in the shop — for example while a client is choosing flash or browsing finished work.
Who can start it
- Anyone with Portfolio can launch Showcase from Portfolio or Flash (Portfolio always includes Showcase).
- A Showcase-only user can sign in and land on Showcase without access to the rest of admin. Create that login under Settings → Users by granting only Showcase.
Start a show
- Open Portfolio or Flash, or sign in as a Showcase-only user and open Showcase.
- Choose Showcase (or Portfolio showcase / Flash showcase).
- Set options, then Start.
Settings are remembered separately for portfolio and flash.
Layout and playback
- Images on screen — 1 to 6 at once.
- Seconds per screen — how long each screen stays before advancing.
- Show arrows and allow swipe — optional manual control; when off, the show autoplays only.
- Shuffle order — randomise each time you start.
- Show captions — optional labels under images.
Filters
Optional artist and category tags narrow which published images play. Leave filters empty to include all.
On flash, Show claimed flash includes designs marked taken; leave it off to show available designs only.
QR code
Optionally overlay a QR code clients can scan. Link it to your website, portfolio page, flash page, Instagram, or a custom URL. The label under the code defaults to your shop name.
Offline
When the show starts, images download first (Preparing showcase…). After that you can disconnect the network and playback continues for this session. Exit and restart needs a connection again so images can preload.
Use fullscreen from the on-screen control when the browser supports it. On devices without fullscreen, install TatShop Admin as an app for a cleaner kiosk view — see Install TatShop Admin.
Exit
Use the exit control on the player to return to Portfolio, Flash, or the Showcase launcher.
