The layout and positioning of each of the main components and the location of the grid views can be saved per user.

 

User Layout Preferences

You can re-position many of the main windows; such as the hardware tree, live events, status grids, or the photo recall frame, cardholders form allowing you to design the user interface to work the way that you want. You might want to re-size the Live Events grid so that you can see more messages, or you may want to drag it over to a second monitor or another location on the screen. To do this, right-click on the live events header and select 'Floating' - you will then be able to change the size of the screen.

There are also many other Layout Templates to choose from with different color schemes for headers, tabs, title bars and so on. These, together with the different display color options for live events, can be helpful for operators who may be color blind and find it hard to distinguish between certain color combinations.

Because these layouts settings are saved per user, it is possible to have entirely different layouts for each user of the system.
