Opening and saving a global layout
If you rearrange program elements and edit the display, you can save your settings to a *.lay file and thus save them outside the version file. You can read this global layout in again and apply it to the user interface. The layout file contains the settings of the following elements:
- Network editor
- Matrix editor
- Junction editor
- Timetables (tabular and graphical)
- Quick view
- Lists
- Line block editor
- Schematic line diagram
- Connecting journeys window
- Transfers display of regular services
- Model transfer view
- 3-D network view
- Signal time-space diagram
- Profiles (activity profile, line block profile, timetable profile, DRT vehicle profile)
- Legends
- Graphics tools (Shortest path search, Isochrones, Turn volumes, Desire line, Flow bundle)
The file, for example, contains the following information:
- Arrangement of the windows and tool windows
- Used layout for each window and set graphic parameters
- Attribute selection
- Settings of the column column charts
- Other settings like filter settings, flow bundle definitions, isochrones
- Current image section of the network editor and the junction editor
Notes: You can specify a layout file in the configuration file (Changes to settings in the configuration file) or on the command line with option -Y ( Starting Visum with different settings). During program start, this file will be loaded after the version file and before the graphic parameters file. The layout file only takes effect during program start, not when resetting the window configuration. |
