Subwindows

RadioTracer displays the output data of the simulations in various subwindows. These subwindows have a menu bar with the following buttons:

About

Displays Copyright Information and License Agreement in a new window.

Update

Displays a dialog box with additional information about the data presented in the subwindow. Certain parameters of the display can be changed through this dialog box. All input to RadioTracer is blocked until the dialog has been exited. The dialog box or subsequent dialog boxes available through additional buttons are used to modify the visualization mode of the subwindow, to export the content of the subwindow into a file, or to set certain parameters.

Close

(Not available on Windows platforms.) The subwindow is closed. The main menu entry Close All closes all subwindows.

Note that while a dialog box disabling the menus is open, no subwindow can be closed.

The content of any window can be grabbed and stored into a file. There is no menu entry for grabbing. Whenever the shortcut key Ctrl-G is pressed, the window content of the window containing the cursor is stored into a file with name grabNNN.ppm in ppm-format, where the number NNN is automatically incremented each time a window content is grabbed. Note that grabbing works directly on the screen, i.e., if another window is partially overlapping the active window, the overlap is stored into the file.
