Customizing the AVWorks Explorer Window

The AVWorks Explorer window can be resized at any time. Each time you launch the application, the AVWorks Explorer window opens to its default size and location.

A split-pane divider that runs from top to bottom separates the Group Selector pane and the Unit Selector pane. You can move the divider left and right to change the viewing area of the Group Selector pane and the Unit Selector pane. Each time AVWorks Explorer is started, the divider will appear in its default location. See Appendix B for divider pane and tree view control mouse and keyboard shortcuts.

Modifying the selected view on startup

When Default is checked under the selected view on the startup option, the AVWorks Explorer will determine which view to display. If you have one or more servers defined, the Devices display will appear by default. If you do not, the Appliances display will appear.

When Default is unchecked, the AVWorks Explorer will display the view selected in the pulldown menu shown below the checkbox. The pulldown menu contains the following values: Appliances, Devices, Sites and Folders. The pulldown menu is only enabled when the checkbox is unchecked.

To modify the selected view on startup:

1.Select Tools - Options from the AVWorks Explorer menu. The Options dialog box appears.
