Adding a Display board

<p>Once you have your Stats points set up, you are ready to start creating Display boards. 
See the <a href="viewpage.action?pageId=4817220">Stats points</a> section for information 
on creating or editing Stats points.</p>

<p>Select the <span class="button">Live stats</span> tab and the following screen will appear. 
If you are adding a Display board for the first time, the content of this screen will be blank.</p>

the top right of the displayDisplay boards list, as shown below.</p>

<p>The following pop-up will appear allowing you to choose one of three options:</p>

<ul>
	<li><b>Create blank:</b> This option allows you to design your own displayDisplay board from scratch</li>
	<li><b>Create from a template:</b> This option allows you to choose a pre-defined displayDisplay board template</li>
	<li><b>Create from an existing displayDisplay board:</b> This option allows you to base your new displayDisplay board on an existing template</li>
</ul>

<h2>Create blank</h2>

<p>Blank displayDisplay boards start off as completely blank screens, allowing you to
determine what panels you would like to appear on the screen. To do
this, simply select <span class="keyword">Create blank</span> from the list below. Then click on the 
<span class="button">Finish</span> button.</p>

<p>In that case, your Display board will have no Stats points.</p>

<p>The Display board will appear in the list, as follows:</p>

<p>To design your Display board according to your needs, please have a look at the <a href="Designing a Display board">Designing a Display board</a> page</p> 

<h2>Create from a template</h2>

<p>Creating displayDisplay boards from a template is one of the quickest and easiest
ways to design a board. To select this option, select the <span class="keyword">Create from a template</span> option from the list below. Then click <span class="button">Next</span>.</p>

<p>Then scroll through the templates to select the one you would like to base
your board on by clicking on the numbers that correspond to each template. 
Once you have chosen the right template for you, press the <span class="button">Next</span> button, as shown here:</p>

it. Remember your displayDisplay board will be blank until you choose a
stats point with which to populate it.</p>
