Drag and Drop Print Blocks to a Row or Column
Master Tour 3 has different Print Blocks for the listed categories you need info on. To add one of these in simply click and drag on the desired block, and place it onto your newly made Row or Column.
Add Merge Fields to a Print Block
Once a print block of your choice has been added, you will see a list of Merge Fields you can add to your template on the right-hand side.
Just click on any of these dropdowns to see available Merge Fields, then click on a Merge Field to add it to your Print Block.
After adding a Merge Field, you can see it highlighted in light blue with the label of what type of information it's retrieving. You can also type in your text without using Merge Fields, which will just appear as regular text without the blue highlight in your Print Block:
Style Merge Fields and Other Text
To style or align your Merge Fields and other text, you can select that text in the Print Block Edit section on the right and change Font, Font Size, Font Style, and Alignment using the toolbar at the top of the Print Block Edit section:
Edit and Style Print Blocks
To change things like Text Color, Background Color, Padding, and Borders for a Row or Column of Print Blocks, click on your block of choice and scroll down on the right-hand side. Both Padding and Borders will apply to all four sides of your selected Print Block:
Delete Rows and Columns
To delete Rows or Columns, select what you want to remove and click on "Delete Row" or "Delete Column."
Keep in mind that deleting a Row will also delete any Columns placed in it.
Edit and Style Tables
With some types of Print Blocks, you can use a Table format instead of the standard Text format. To use this format, just drag a Print Block onto your Template page, then select the Table option in your Print Block Edit section:
Here you can choose from a selection of available fields to drag over to your columns, and you'll see a preview of these fields on the left side of the Template Editor.
In the Print Block Edit section, you can also rearrange the order of any of your placed columns by clicking and dragging them in your desired order.
To delete a column from your Table, click on the trash icon next to the Column you want to remove.
With the Table format of a Print Block, you can customize either individual Table Columns or the Table as a whole. To do so, click on the Table and/or a Table Column and scroll down on the right-hand side. Here, you can find Font, Font Size, Text Align, Color, Border, and Padding options:
You also have Show Header, Footer, and Item Count options, which you can toggle on or off depending on your preference:
With Table type Print Blocks, you can also select different background colors for different rows to help with readability. To set alternating colors on your Table Rows, click on the Odd Row Background or Even Row Background color box to select the color:
Use Guest List Filtering
For Guest List Print Blocks, you can set up your print template to filter out specific Priorities or Statuses by default. Just select the Priority or Status options that you want to include, and only those Guest Listings will appear when you print this template:
Once you click on Print Preview to see your Guest List, you'll also have the option to filter out Requestors or Events:
Use the Week at a Glance Print Block
To add a Week At A Glance Print Block, click and drag the block to your desired Row.
With a Week At A Glance block, you will see upcoming Tour Dates' Day Title, City, State, and Country in a seven-day Row.
