Customizing the User Interface Overview
You can customize the LonMaker user interface. You can change the title block that appears on each
page of a LonMaker drawing, the commands that appear on the LonMaker menus, the appearance of
the LonMaker shortcut menus.
Editing the Title Block
You can change the title block that appears on each page of a LonMaker drawing. The default
LonMaker templates create a title block at the bottom right corner of each page. The title block
provides the following information about the drawing: drawing title, page number, name of the
drawing’s creator, date the drawing was created, full file name of the drawing, and a brief description
of the drawing or network.
To edit the title block, open the Edit menu, point to Go To, and select Background. Select the part of
the title block you want to edit (no cursor appears) and then enter the information you want displayed.
To return to the main drawing, open to the Edit menu, point to Go To, and select Foreground. The
changes you made to the title block are displayed.
Tip: You can use the same method to add your company logo to your LonMaker drawing.
Changing the Commands on the LonMaker Menus
You can change the commands that appear on the LonMaker menus. You can either display all Visio
and LonMaker commands, or you can display a basic set of commands. Users who only need to
perform common operations like commissioning devices can use the basic set; advanced users will
typically use the full set. To change the displayed commands, open the LonMaker menu and click
Select Minimum UI/Maximum UI. The default setting is Maximum UI, which displays all Visio
and LonMaker commands. You can set the initial UI setting for each LonMaker user as described in
Creating a New User Profile in Chapter 3, Getting Started.
