Tool Window

Tool windows display interface components that are used to configure, diagnose or navigate a Geo SCADA Expert system. These include the Explorer Bars and the Messages window.

If an interface component displays in a tool window, you can only open one instance of the component at a time.

When a tool window is displayed, you can:

• Float or dock the tool window (see Float or Dock Windows). (You can only dock tool windows in the Primary Window Container.)

  A floating tool window can contain a single interface component, or a number of components displayed as a set of tabs. For more information, see Float a Window that is Currently Docked.

  You can only float tool windows in ViewX.

• Use the Auto Hide feature for a tool window (see Using Auto Hide for a Tool Window).

When two or more tool windows are displayed, you can:

• Select the next tool window by using the ALT+F7 keyboard shortcut.
• Select the previous tool window by using the SHIFT+ALT+F7 keyboard shortcut.

To close a tool window, either:

• Select the Close button to the right of tool window's title bar.

Or:

• Right-click on the title bar of the tool window and select Close from the menu that appears.
