Configuration

The configuration refers to the size and placement of dstool windows. You can save the size and location of the following windows and panels: the Command Window, the Orbits Panel, the Multiple Orbits Panel, the Periodic Orbit Panel, the Selected Point Window, the Function Window, and the Defaults Settings Window. In addition, each view window may be saved, along with all of the options associated with it.

The configuration of dstool is accomplished by saving command lines such as

# Configuration Orbit_Win 143 124 316 369
# Configuration Selected_Win 455 124 275 252
# Configuration Defaults_Win 819 372 347 451
# Configuration Cmd_Win 5 7 435 81
# Configuration TwoD_Win 291 372 534 526
        Window_Number 0   Symbol    0   Size 0           BG_Color 0
        Show_Cmap     0   Cmap_Type 0   Depth_Coord 0    DC_Min -30    DC_Max 30
        Color_Table   colortable_alt
        Hor_Min -30   Hor_Max 30    Ver_Min -30   Ver_Max 30
        Hor_Type 100  Ver_Type 100  Hor_Index 0  Ver_Index 1
Each window name (Orbit_Win, Selected_Win, etc.) is followed by four integers which signify the screen locations of the window's left edge, top, width, and height. The view window (here a 2D-view window) is followed by information which determines how the window will display data. Much of this information (e.g., symbol and symbol size) is found on the View Options Panel associated with the View Window.
