Managing Sessions Using CA Automation Point Windows › Using the Automation Point Desktop › Layouts

Layouts

After you have moved or resized your session and function windows, you can save the layout and restore it later as needed. A layout contains the position, size, and font specification for session, function, and dialog windows. This feature is common to the Automation Point Desktop and Remote Viewer applications. Remote Viewer-specific features are described in the section Remote Viewer Layouts.

Notes:

• You must first save a layout before you can load one.
• If an operation being performed as a result of loading a layout cannot be processed (for example, a window does not exist in a currently active session definition set), it is silently ignored.
• After a successful save or load operation, the AXC2001I or AXC2002I messages are displayed, respectively.
• We strongly recommend that you let the user interface stabilize before performing another layout operation, especially when using Remote Viewer, where establishing of a connection can take a long time, depending on network latency.
• Layout name length is limited to 259 characters.
• Layout names “*New*" and "*Empty*” are reserved and cannot be used.
