Grid tabs
The grid tab is a special
type of grid window located at the bottom of the screen. It is registered with the
broadcast system and reflects changes made in other registered windows.
Grid tabs are used together
with the report engine and serve as
data sources for the reports and 59+ Analyzer. A report can be created using one of the grid tabs as
the data source instead of the whole database. A report can also be saved in one
of the tabs. QSOs can be added and removed from grid tabs which makes it
possible creating reports from any set of QSOs. To learn more about using data
sources in reports read about the report configuration
dialog.
Grids used in tabs are
derived from the main grid control and inherit
most of its functionality, shortcuts and context menus. Columns can be added and
removed using the same technique described in the main grid chapter.
Adding and removing QSOs
In the main grid click the
right mouse button to bring up the context menu
and select the “Add to Tab” menu item. QSO that is currently selected in the
grid will be added to the active tab. You can add more then one QSO if you
select a block of cells.
To remove a QSO from a tab
click on the QSO with the right mouse button to show the popup menu and select
“Remove QSO” menu item. Note that the QSO will not be deleted from the
database, it will only remove the row from the tab grid.
Rename tab name
Double-click on a tab name
to invoke the “Change tab name” dialog.
Enter a new name and confirm
your choice by pressing “OK”. Tab name will later be saved in the local
configuration file when you exit the application.
