- Panel Configuration:
- To modify the configuration of a panel, simply middle-click (MMB) on the panel and
select
Configure and then Modify .
- While in "modify mode" the lines will be drawn in yellow.
- While in "modify mode" the lines can be moved around and (via MMB) new lines can
be added.
- There are two other parts to a panel: HLine and
VLine. These are the movable dividers between the panes.
- When adding a HLine or a VLine use a LMB click, otherwise you
risk having multiple lines being added on top of each other.
- Once the lines are in place use the MMB to add the panes.
- Using MMB on a panel allows the title to be set and allows the graphical
primitives to be attached.

- When done MMB on the panel and select
Configure and then Save .
- The default save location is usually correct (i.e. same location as macro and
named
<macroname>.mmp ).
X-Midas Users Take Note: |
The X-Midas LEARN function can be used to save the relative position of
various windows; when the setup is saved in NeXtMidas the relative window position is
also saved. The one key difference between window position in X-Midas and NeXtMidas is
that X-Midas saves window position and size in percentage-of-screen-width while NeXtMidas
uses absolute pixel coordinates.
