specified

in pixels. This number may be adjusted as an office

desires.

It is not recommended to go above 600 since there would be display

The legend mode, upon startup, may be specified as 'GRIDS', 'MUTABLE',

'ACTIVE', 'MAPS', or 'SETIME'. The default mode is 'GRIDS'.
|
|
'GRIDS' shows all grids in the legend; 'MUTABLE' shows changed weather
|
|
elements; 'ACTIVE' shows actively displayed weather elements; 'MAPS'
|
|
shows
|
|
maps; and 'SETIME' shows the spatial editor time.
|
|
<p>Note that while running the GFE, you can change the legend mode
|
|
with
|
|
a MB3 (over the grid)->Legends->'Hide', 'Show Fcst Weather
|
|
Elements', 'Show

|
|
The initial Grid Manager mode, upon startup, may be specified as
|
|
'Normal', 'History', 'Saved', 'Modified', 'Published', or 'Sent'.
|
|
In 'Normal' mode, the Grid Manager shows all grid blocks as "gray",
|
|
except for those which are displayed or active in the spatial
|
|
editor. In 'History' mode, the Grid Manager color-codes each grid
|
|
block to indicate its data source and whether it has been
|
|
modified. 'Saved' mode color codes the blocks based on the last
|
|
time the grid was saved. 'Modified' mode color codes the blocks
|
|
based on the last time the grid was modified. 'Published'
|
|
color codes the blocks based on the last published time. 'Sent'
|
|
color codes the blocks based on the last time the grid was sent via
|
|
Intersite Coordination.<br>
|
|
<p>Note that while running the GFE, you can change the grid manager
|
|
mode through the <a href="Toolbar.html#GridManagerMode">Toolbar's Grid

<h4><a name="OfficeDomainExpansion"></a><font size="+1">Office Domain

|
|
The office domain is calculated from the domains of all weather
|
|
elements
|
|
that are loaded into the GFE. The actual domain displayed on the
|
|
GFE spatial editor may be expanded in order to provide "white space"
|
|
around
|
|
the grid. The percentage of expansion is defined via four
|
|
different
|
|
Office_Domain_expand variables. By default, the percentage is 10%
|
|
in each of the four directions. Note that these values are not
|
|
absolute,
|
|
just hints. The aspect ratio of the GFE spatial editor will take
|
|
these numbers into account, but may not use the exact values.

The initial location of the edit action dialog can be set. The
|
|
location
|
|
is in absolute screen coordinates with (0,0) in the upper left of the

display
|
|

The user can control whether the GFE initially comes up in horizontial

are placed above the spatial editor. The user will either specify
