DW Spectrum User Manual
Digital Watchdog
If too many Tabs are opened at the same time, scrolling arrows will appear:
These arrows can be used to scroll Tabs left and right.
To navigate to a specific Tab or open a saved layout, use the button located on the right (next to ):
Initially, no Layouts are configured in the system. An empty default Tab is shown (“New Layout”). If User
tries to configure Layout in this Tab, asterisk will automatically be added to the caption (indicating a
Layout change). The Layout will remain local.
The layout information is automatically passed to Enterprise Controller once Layout is saved (See “Saving
Layouts”). If Layout is saved successfully, it will be displayed in Resource Tree under the current User.
When closing all Layouts, the default blank Tab will still appear. If the current Layout is saved as “New
Layout”, the blank Tab located next to it will be renamed “New Layout 1” automatically.
Any saved Layouts that were previously opened, will appear automatically once User logs in.
See "Layout Management" and specifically "Setting up Layout" sections for more details.
