Panes

In addition to the Record View pane, the QuakeManager user-interface consists of several panes that can be customized by the user:

•Project Explorer

•Ground Motion Library

•Charts

•Record Properties

•Search and Select

The user can control the size and position of each pane including the ability to Float, Dock, Auto Hide and Hide panes. The user can right-click on the top of the pane or click the downward triangle on the top right of the pane (see Figure below) and choose one of the following options:

•The Floating option allows users to drag panes to any position on the screen within QuakeManager in which users can freely move the above listed panes.

•The Dockable option allows users to fix the pane in its position. Note that users may dock any pane after floating by selecting the Dockable option and dragging the pane to its default position. By default, this option is applicable to all the panes in QuakeManager. Panes may be docked on top of or adjacent to other panes. Tip: Pressing and holding the CTRL button while moving a dockable pane will prevent from docking (until the CTRL button is released).

•Auto Hide option allows users to hide any desired pane. Panes will be minimized to an edge, and users may hover over the pane in which it will appear automatically.

•Hide option allows to hide any pane. To re-open the hidden pane, it may be activated it from the View Ribbon.
