Layout Options and Time Settings

Layout Options

The tab layout specifies how many different tools the user wants to combine in one tab. To get to the tab layout overview, simply click on the layout settings.

Frame 5

Up to nine different panels can be chosen from. Each tab can contain a map, plot or any other option MetX is offering.

In the tab settings you can find as well the "Map Sync" options, which can be used for maps. When "Map Sync" is on, all maps in the tab move synchronously. 

Redo and undo option

If you want to undo or redo certain steps in your dashboards, you can simply click the arrows on the top of the dashboard and MetX shows the previous state of the dashboards.

You do not have to save different states of your dashboards as MetX is saving automatically every change you do.

Time Settings

MetX will open every dashboard per default in the current time. Dates, times and timezones can be adjusted in the Date Time Settings.
