MotionX-Dice HD FAQ

Application User Interface

The application has 3 main views:

  • Roll: Where you roll dice.
  • Dice Gallery: Where you view and select specific dice/table combinations.
  • Settings: Where you adjust all application settings.

Roll View

This is where you roll dice! Shake your iPad or touch the Roll button to roll dice. Change dice by touching the Games button to view the Games Gallery.

You can roll up to six dice at a time. The number of dice is adjustable from the Settings view. To hold a die (or dice) between rolls, simply touch the die or dice and the chosen dice will be placed in the dice holder at the bottom of the screen. To move a die back onto the table, simply touch the die in the holder and it will be moved back onto the table.

For more information about your current dice and table, touch the small info button in the corner of the table.

Games Gallery
