Other buttons

Button Description
Inkscape Opens the display editor program (Inkscape) distributed with the system. The graphic file of the current display is automatically loaded into this program for editing
Duplicate Allows you to make an exact replica of the selected display, which makes it easier to create displays that are very similar to existing ones. A new display will be defined with the same points as the original, and a copy of the graphic file will be made. Afterwards, if desired, you should assign the users who will have access to the new display in the Users section
Import Allows you to add a previously exported display to the configuration. You must select the .eqdis extension file previously created during the export process
Export Allows you to save the data of the selected display to an external file with the .eqdis extension, which can later be imported into a different configuration. It includes the defined points as well as the display’s graphic file. Clicking the button opens a new window where you can selectively choose the columns of the Points section to be exported
