|
==================================
|
||
|
|
Configuring the Main Window
|
||
|
|
==================================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The main window is configurable. By default there are
|
||
|
|
three screen layouts and each can be configured as you desire.
|
||
|
|
To change to one of the screen layouts, use the :ref:`menu_items_view` menu.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Hiding the window items
|
||
|
|
==============================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The first way to configure the main window is to Hide
|
||
|
|
items that are not used.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you are not using the Projector Manager, having it open
|
||
|
|
all the time uses up part of the window that could be
|
||
|
|
used for other items. To hide the Projector Manager, or any
|
||
|
|
other item, left click on the 'X' in the right corner of
|
||
|
|
the item. You can also use the :ref:`menu_items_view` menu to hide or show
|
||
|
|
any of the main window items.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Re-Sizing the window items
|
||
|
|
=================================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you use the item part of the time, you can re-size the item
|
||
|
|
in the same manner you re-size any window on the desktop
|
||
|
|
by placing your pointer over the edge of the item and pulling
|
||
|
|
the edge in or out to re-size the item .
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Change the Location of an item in the window
|
||
|
|
===================================================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There are four zones the items can be located in addition to
|
||
|
|
keeping the item as a seperate window.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Left Side of the window
|
||
|
|
2. Right Side of the window
|
||
|
|
3. Top of the window
|
||
|
|
4. Bottom of the window
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To move an item, move the mouse over the item title bar and press
|
||
|
|
and hold the left mouse button while draging the item to a new
|
||
|
|
location. When the item is in a location that the item can be
|
||
|
|
located at, the area will turn blue to indicate the item can be placed
|
||
|
|
at that location. Releasing the left mouse button will place the
|
||
|
|
item at that location.

Tab Locating an item
|
||
|
|
====================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
By default the items in the main window are located above,
|
||
|
|
below or to the side of other items in the window. Most of the
|
||
|
|
items can also be located in a Tab arrangement. This arrangement
|
||
|
|
allows the item to be full sized, and to be viewed by selecting
|
||
|
|
a Tab at the bottom of another item in the window.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To create a Tab located item, move the mouse over the item title
|
||
|
|
bar then press and hold the left mouse button while draging the
|
||
|
|
item to a new location on top of another item in the window. When
|
||
|
|
the item is in a location that the item can be placed at, the area
|
||
|
|
will turn blue to indicate the item can be located at that location.
|
||
|
|
Releasing the left mouse button will create the Tab location with
|
||
|
|
the item you moved and the item or items displayed in blue.

Locking and Un-Locking the panels
|
||
|
|
=================================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To prevent the panels from changing accidently you can lock the
|
||
|
|
panels. After you have made your changes to the panels, lock the
|
||
|
|
panels using the :ref:`menu_items_view` menu Lock Panels menu item.
|
||
|
|
By selecting the Lock Panels menu item a second time you can
|
||
|
|
unlock the panels.
