A View Configuration defines a series (1 or more) View Definitions to load into the Spectator Display along with optional Marquee Messages (the bottom strip). There is usually one View Configuration for each segment of a match. A View Configuration will be loaded into the Spectator Display after a Display Event happens, and is mapped by an Event Assignment.
View Configuration files are JSON text files that must be edited by hand. They are located in the My Matches/DATABASE/Display/ViewConfiguration folder.
Files who's name start with "Athena" are reserved for use by Orion. Do not edit these files as upgrades to Orion may overwrite them. It is permissible to copy these files and edit the copies.
