The Home Control Assistant 13
Tab Bar
Across the bottom of the display pane is a tab bar that facilitates quick access to displays.
To switch the display pane to a different display using the tab bar just click on the tab for the
display. If there are more tabs that can fit, use the arrow buttons at the left end of the tab bar.
You can reorder the tabs by clicking on a tab and dragging it to a new location. The order of the
tabs is saved in the design file.
Not all displays must have a tab. There is an option on the display’s properties to have a tab seen
or not.
Working with a picture background or no background
Once you have completed the wizard the display appears Display Pane in HCA. If you have no
background it appears empty. With a picture background, the picture displays.
Without a DXF background, the Display pane looks like the Windows Explorer using the Large
Icon view. Each icon is shown with a label below it—the name of the device, program, or group.
The icons are arranged in a grid pattern, but, as with the Windows Explorer, you can arrange the
icons in various ways. On the ribbon Design category there are a number of buttons to sort the
icons in various ways.
The ribbon contains:
Arrange Icons by Name—places the icons in alphabetic order.
Arrange Icons by Unit—orders the icons by primary address.
Arrange Icons by Type—places the icons with similar devices next to each other.
In addition to the ribbon, if you right-click on the display background when not on an icon, a
popup menu contains additional options. These are.
