Tool Layout


For menu operation, refer to Layout menu.

About Layout File Names

The save file of each layout is saved in the layout folder with the name "toolLayout_ (layout name) .ini".
If you do not select a layout immediately after startup, the toolLayout.ini file is saved as an unnamed layout.

Layout information

The initial layout is adapted to a Mac standard resolution layout window size of 1440x900.
Changing the window size also changes the layout inside.
Saving layouts will record the position and size of the window and view.

Layout update

The old layout may not be properly available if the tool functionality or view type is changed
If the layout information is old, you will be warned at boot time whether to initialize the layout.

How to change the layout

Each view of the layout can be windowed or not by double-clicking on the window title.
If you want to place each view arbitrarily, refer to Displaying Views as Windows .

If you want to change the layout

To change the layout, unlock the layout or select "Save Layout".
When a layout is in the unlocked state, the modifications are saved when switching to a new layout.
Once a layout is chosen, selecting "Lock Layout" will switch immediately.

Change the window size when switching layouts

If you want to make the window size full screen, follow the steps below:

  • 1. Unlock the layout
  • 2. Change the window size
  • 3. Switch the layout
  • 4. Perform steps 2 to 3 for each layout.
  • 5. Lock the layout
    Now the position and size of the window will be recorded and will be reproduced on subsequent switches.

Revert All Layouts

Please select "Revert All Layouts" to return to the initial state if the layout has a problem.
Rebooting the application is necessary for this operation.

Notes on using dual screens

When two or more monitors are connected and the layout outside the main screen is captured, some windows may not be visible after switching back to a single monitor.
This may be solved by selecting "Reset Current Layout".

Notes on windowing

A windowed view will be displayed in front of all applications on the Mac.
Double-click on the title of the window to fit in back in the main window.

About information such as column width

The list editor's column widths, filter states, and visibility in the inspector list are stored differently from the layout.

The saved file is saved as the file "toolSubLayout.ini" in the "toolSubLayout" folder of the folder opened in "Layout > Open Layout Folder".
If you want to reset the column width, etc., to the initial state, you can return the initial state by closing the application and deleting the toolSubLayout.ini file.
