GUI Overview
The main window consists of a menu bar, a tool bar, a status bar and common frame
for displaying several child windows.

All user activities can be done with items in the menu bar.
1. File
These menu entries deal with files or printing.
The first two entries Import and Export Configuration files (XML format) which
contain information about the chosen Beam Profiler device and its settings, file
export parameters and application settings. In order to copy the GUI appearance
and Beam Profiler settings to another PC you need to save the configuration file,
copy it and load it on the target system.
The second part allows you to import and export originally retrieved from the camera
beam profiler data:
