CVIM2 System Configuration: An Overview
2–11
In the Configuration Editor panel, the pointer is positioned over the
button, and the left mouse button is clicked, to select the
Inspection panel. When the appropriate inspection parameters are entered,
the pointer is placed over the button, and the left mouse button is
clicked, to exit back to the Configuration Editor panel.
Figure 2.11 (page 2–12) demonstrates dragging a panel to a different position
on the screen. The pointer can be placed anywhere in the title bar and the
panel dragged to its final position.
Figure 2.12 (page 2–13) uses a “Results” panel to identify the symbols and
points that are used for manipulating a panel on the screen (some of these
points and symbols are also used on other panels). When picked, they
perform specific functions, as follows:
•
Expand/contract size symbol –– If you pick this symbol (
♦) in the
upper right corner, the panel will change to an alternate size (by default, it
expands to the full screen size initially). When you pick the symbol again,
the panel returns to its previous size.
•
Change panel size symbol –– You can change the panel size (without
moving the panel) by picking and dragging this symbol in the lower right
corner of the panel. The panel’s upper left corner remains anchored.
•
Move panel –– You can move the panel (without changing its size) by
picking anywhere in the title bar and dragging the panel across the screen.
(See Figure 2.12.)
•
Display icon symbol –– If you pick this symbol (
*) while the panel is
displayed on the screen (expanded or reduced), it will contract into the
icon form. When you pick the icon, the panel returns.
•
Scroll bar and arrows –– When the panel is not high enough to display
all rows listed in it, you can pick the up or down arrows or the scroll bar
on the right side of the panel to scroll panel contents up or down.
Similarly, when the panel is not wide enough to display all of its columns,
you can pick the left and right arrows or the scroll bar on the bottom of
the panel to scroll the panel’s contents right or left.
Center Button and Right Button
The center mouse button can perform some of the functions of the left
button, for example, picking and dragging a panel across the screen, selecting
alternate panel sizes, and operating the scrolling functions. The right button
can alternately position a panel over or under an overlapping panel.
