Working with Small, Medium and Large Grids
When you select Small Grid, Medium Grid or Large Grid from the Layout Grids
sub-menu, the Viewing Area displays ‘cells’ for Video Windows. These are boundaries
indicating a uniform size which is used to display Video Windows in a tile-like manner.
Drag a camera thumbnail image into a blank tile
In the Camera Selection Area, click
a thumbnail image and drag its
selection boundary onto the
Viewing Area grid. The boundary
will re-size.
Release the mouse button. The
selection boundary will become a
Video Window and ‘snap’ into
alignment along the grid closest
to it.
To re-size the Video Window, click any
corner and drag the image outwards to
‘snap’ to a larger grid area.
Create and align more Video Windows
Drag more thumbnail
images onto the Viewing
Area grid and re-size
them to suit your viewing
requirements as shown
in this example.

The Layout menu is also available by right-clicking anywhere in
the Viewing Area.
A Video Window can be increased in size to take up a number
of tiles, (for example 4 tiles, 9 tiles etc) so that Video Windows
of different sizes/priorities can be viewed.
