DesignAsist is the design product of the Asist family. CollectAsist does not contain a separate design tool; visuals such as an event's cover and live slideshow theme are prepared in DesignAsist, and CollectAsist stores and uses the designs saved to the event.
This area is in beta. Today the panel lists, applies and deletes designs that were already saved to an event. A link that opens the DesignAsist editor from the panel, or brings a new design into CollectAsist, is not part of this version; those steps are described in the planned sections below.
What you can do today
- Download the QR code as PNG or SVG and place it in your own card and poster design
- Use an event photo as the cover without a DesignAsist design
- Upload your logo for the share watermark added to photos that guests share
Applying saved cover and slideshow theme designs is in beta and is described in the beta sections below.
Design types
CollectAsist recognises six design types. The types that can be applied to an event today are the cover and the slideshow theme; the others are stored but not used automatically.
| Type | In CollectAsist today |
|---|---|
| Cover | Applied as the guest page cover |
| Slideshow theme | Applied as the background and layout of the live slideshow |
| Share frame | Stored; not used automatically in the event |
| Print frame | Stored; not used automatically in the event |
| Guestbook cover | Stored; not used automatically in the event |
| Thank-you card | Stored; not used automatically in the event |
QR table cards and posters are not among the types saved to CollectAsist as designs. For those you download the QR code; see "What you can do without DesignAsist" below.
Using saved designsBeta
The DesignAsist designs card appears only if at least one design is saved to the event. With no designs, the card is not shown in the tab.
- Open the Design & Screen tab on the event page.
- Review the designs in the DesignAsist designs card. Each design shows its type, size and version; clicking the image opens it at full size in a new tab.
- Click Use as cover to apply a cover, or Use as slideshow theme to apply a slideshow theme.
- The applied design gets an In use label. Click Remove to undo it.
If several versions of the same design were saved, the card shows only the newest one. Designs with the All events label are saved for the whole account and cannot be deleted from the event page.
Use Delete to remove a design. Deleting removes only the copy in CollectAsist: if the design is in use it is taken off the event, and the design in DesignAsist is kept.
Applying and deleting designs needs the permission to manage events. A user with only the view permission sees the designs but cannot change them.
How the cover and slideshow theme look to guestsBeta
Cover: the applied cover is shown in the cover area at the top of the guest page. Because a designed cover carries the event name, names and date inside the image, the page does not print them over the cover again. A portrait design fills the cover area completely; a landscape design is shown as a card without cropping. The studio logo and the language picker stay on top of the cover.
Slideshow theme: the applied theme is shown full screen as the background of the live slideshow. The theme carries the areas where the photo, the wish text and the QR code are placed. Photos and wishes go into these areas; if the theme has more than one photo area, the slideshow shows several photos at once. With no theme applied, the slideshow runs with its default look. See Live slideshow for setting it up.
The guest page and the slideshow use the copy of the design stored in CollectAsist. Nothing connects to DesignAsist on the guest side.
What you can do without DesignAsist
The following are CollectAsist's own features and do not need DesignAsist.
- QR code: download it with Download PNG or Download SVG from the QR code card in the Overview tab of the event page. The code is permanent; you can place it on a table card, an invitation or a poster in any design tool you use. See QR code and guest page.
- Cover from a photo: open a photo in the Content tab and choose Set as cover to make it the guest page cover. Vertical focus in the Cover image card slides the photo up or down. With no cover, the guest page shows a cover in the event colour.
- Share watermark: the logo added to the corner when a guest shares a photo, uploaded under Logo and share watermark on the Settings page. It is not a DesignAsist share frame; there is no story-sized share frame, and sharing adds only the logo stamp. See Account, brand and logo.
- Print looks: the Plain, White border, Polaroid and Captioned looks a guest chooses in a print order are CollectAsist's own layouts. See Print orders.
Publish the event before sending the QR code to print, and test a printed sample by scanning it with your phone.
Opening the DesignAsist editor from the panelPlanejado
Opening the DesignAsist editor from the event page, passing the event's name, date and QR code into the design automatically, and saving the finished design straight to the event are planned. This link is not in the CollectAsist panel today.
QR card and poster templatesPlanejado
Ready-made templates tied to the event for printed items such as QR table cards, posters and invitation inserts are planned. Today you download the QR code and place it in your own design.
Using share and print framesPlanejado
Applying a saved share frame to the photos guests share, and a saved print frame to the options in a print order, is planned. Today these types are only stored.
