Starting cycling views and adjusting cycling intervals in view containers

In addition to arranging the frames within the view container, you can view each frame at its maximum size and regulate the amount of time each frame is viewed. Instead of viewing all frames at once in the view container, each frame is viewed at its maximum size for a specific time interval. The views continue to cycle automatically, but you can stop the cycle at any time and move backward and forward in the order each frame is viewed.

To start cycling views within a view container

1. Right-click the view container tab and select Start cycling views or click on the Start cycling views button on the toolbar to toggle cycling views on.The view container displays views and charts maximized within the container. The default cycling interval is 15 seconds.

   Tip

   Clicking the Cycling views button stops the cycling and returns to the original container display. Clicking the Next maximized view or Previous maximized view arrow switches from automatic cycling to manual.

2. (optional) To change the cycling interval, right-click the container tab, select Set interval when cycling and click on the desired cycle time from the available options.
3. (optional) Use any of the following methods to manage cycling:
   • The center button functions as a toggle. Clicking on the button changes its color and switches the cycling mode so you can start/stop cycling and toggle between the maximum view of the individual frames and a view of all frames within the container.

   • Depending on the mode, the center button changes color and displays as either red (cycling stopped), green (cycling started) or yellow (manual cycling).

     To shift to the next or previous view in the container and switch to manual cycling, click the forward and back buttons on the toolbar.

   • When using manual cycling, clicking on the center button resets the view back to the container view which shows all frames within the container.
