Can I Set the Map Layout So It Stays After I Restart Fabric
Manager?
If you have arranged the map to your liking and would like to “freeze” the map so that the objects stay
as they are even after you stop Fabric Manager and restart it again, do the following:
Step 1 Right-click on a blank space in the map. A menu is displayed.
Step 2 Select Layout -> Fix All Nodes from the menu.
