Live Badge

Everything below can be changed without touching the animation. Hand the list to an agent, or edit the values at the bottom of the component file.

• Label

  label · string

  The word on the solid block. Keep it to one short word — LIVE, ON AIR, EN VIVO. It is set in caps whatever you type.

  now: LIVE

• Viewers

  viewers · number

  The count at the first frame. Everything after it is derived, so this is the only number you set — pick the one you actually go live to.

  now: 1284

• Rate

  rate · number

  Roughly how many people arrive per second, on average. The individual jumps stay irregular around it: raise this to fill the room faster, not to make it climb more smoothly.

  now: 6

• Seed

  seed · number

  Which pattern of jumps you get. Any whole number; the same number always renders the same sequence of polls, so once a take looks right it stays right.

  now: 5

• Anchor

  anchor · "top-left" | "top-right" | "bottom-left" | "bottom-right"

  Which corner the bug sits in. Top-left by default — where a broadcast tally has always gone, and the corner the player's own controls and the presenter both tend to leave alone.

  now: top-left

• Inset

  inset · number

  Distance from both frame edges, as a fraction of the shorter side. The default sits inside the title-safe margin and clears the rounded corner a phone player crops.

  now: 0.055

• Scale

  scale · number

  Size of the bug. Push it up for a vertical cut or for footage that will be watched on a phone — a bug sized for a television is small on a 6-inch screen.

  now: 1

• Ground

  ground · boolean

  Paint a stand-in shot behind it. Off by default — this is an overlay, so it renders on an alpha channel and drops straight onto your own footage. On, you get a deliberately half-blown, half-dark backdrop to check the bug stays readable over both.

  now: true

• Brand

  brand · string

  Brand token id — one of the keys of BRANDS.

  now: ledger
