The screen layout is created automatically according to a client configuration. Nevertheless there are some parameters, which can modify it a bit.

Contents

Screen resolution

The screen resolution is optimized to use the whole screen. So if the resolution is changed, the screen layout has more space to place its elements there. The screen layout can be changed in the file /etc/grub.conf by a parameter "vga=<mode_number>" at the end of "kernel" line:

vga mode numbers available
Color depth 640x480 800x600 1024x768 1280x1024
256 (8bit) 769 771 773 775
32000 (15bit) 784 787 790 793
65000 (16bit) 785 788 791 794
16.7 Mill.(24bit) 786 789 792 795


One column display

If there are more than 3 operations of a type PartCheck, RackPartCheck, Serial, CableCheck or Measurement, then the screen layout is devided into two columns. In this case the windows of each operation are shorter. Sometimes it is needed to display the full windows even there are more operations. It is possible to specify, that the screen shouldn't be devided by the following parameter:

WorkPlace.OneColumnDisplay = Yes | No
WorkPlace_Right.OneColumnDisplay = Yes | No


Hiding of operation window

It is possible to hide the operation window by a parameter:

Operation.name.NoWindow = Yes | No

It is possible to use it for operations which doesn't need to be displayed in the dedicated window as for example serial numbers. Usage of this feature can make more space on the screen for other operations.


To Do Message in a dedicated window

The "To Do Message" (recomendation how to continue) can be displayd in a dedicated window at the bottom of a client screen.

WorkPlace.ToDoWindow.Width = None | Normal | Full
WorkPlace_Right.ToDoWindow.Width = None | Normal | Full

If this parameter is specified, the screen can look like that:

WorkPlace.ToDoWindow.Width = None

WorkPlace.ToDoWindow.Width = Normal

WorkPlace.ToDoWindow.Width = Full
