Viewer panels


All Viewer panels may or may not be included in the viewer definition, so they may not always be present. The button to the left of the text field displays the current session, which is the session to which commands are sent. When the button is clicked a menu with all the sessions appear and the operator may select a different session.
When another session is selected, the text of the button changes. The button in the top left launches the Session Viewer. When the current session changes, its text changes as well.
