Menu bar

Menu bar

The menu bar contains four menu items File, Options, Show and Help.

Toolbars

The main window has two toolbars, Dataaccess/Tools and Time control.

Toolbar Data/Tools

The buttons on Data/Tools show/hides the dialogues for the available data in the system and tools for editing/trajectory-calculations etc. The button to the top/left applies the selections made in the dialogues.

Map-, field-, observation-, satellite-, and the object dialogue have the buttons "Apply" and "Hide" in the bottom.

The Apply-button on the toolbar (the thumb) resets the area, while the Apply-button in the dialogues and the shortcut Ctrl-U keeps the current area/last shown area.

Toolbar Timecontrol

The Time control toolbar has arrows to go backwards and forwards in time, and a time slider that shows the current time in the plotting window. The arrows to the right change the level for the fields.
