Using drop-down lists
Certain configurable name fields, particularly the signal routing ones, have drop-down
lists that offer a number of preset or context-sensitive options to choose from. Long
lists — containing more options than can be displayed simultaneously — have sliders
that allow you to access all the options.
>> To select an option from a drop-down list
1 Click the drop-down arrow. The drop-down list
will unfold to display some or all of its contents,
depending on how many items it contains.
2 Do one of the following:
• Click the option you require.
• If necessary, scroll the list (see “To scroll a
drop-down list” below) to display the option, and then click it.
>> To scroll a drop-down list
With the drop-down list displayed, do one
of the following:
• A. Drag the scroll box.
• B. Click the scroll bar. The scroll box
will ‘jump’ in the direction of the click
to another position in the scroll bar.
• C. Click an up/down scroll arrow. The
scroll box will ‘jump’ in the direction of
the scroll arrow to another scroll bar
position. Clicking a scroll arrow when
the scroll box is adjacent to it has no
effect.
Spin buttons
Up/down spin buttons let you increase/decrease the attribute or
value of an item. For example, the amount of time a signal is
delayed (see “Input channel delay (GUI only)” on page 262).
About windows
There are three main types of window you
will encounter when using the GUI, as
follows (an example of each is shown in the
diagram on the right):
• Properties windows contain elements
that you can select or edit, such as
options, lists, tick boxes, text fields etc.
• Message windows contain text that can
be a prompt or an error message.
Generally, this type of window will
contain an OK and a CANCEL button by
which you can acknowledge the
message or cancel the operation,
respectively. Also, some message
windows contain a user-editable text
field, as shown in the example (right).
