System Preferences Tab
This window is used to change the look and feel of the Navigator GUI. Within
it are several sections that control a number of default settings of the program. Click
on the System Preferences tab to open this window and you’ll note the selections:
Default View
Clicking in this box opens a drop down window listing all of your defined views.
Chose one of them to be the default and this view will automatically be applied every
time you open the GUI, showing the subset of the system as specified by the view.
This function can be useful if you regularly run the system in a partial state. Some
examples might be if you have a TV - Radio combined system and don’t want your
radio staff distracted by the TV half and vice versa. Or perhaps you are in a total
rebuild situation with some studios active and on-air while others are still under
construction; a situation all too common these days. Be cautious about applying a
default view as you can easily overlook the
parts of the system masked by the view. The
normal default view setting is “No View.”
Default Grid Labels
Clicking in this box will open a drop
down window with choices to set the information displayed as the crosspoint grid
labels. The three choices are:
Name - The signals are identified on the crosspoint grid by their eight character
user defined name.
