Layout Properties

Layouts are defined in the config.properties file. A layout needs to be defined and allocated a layout ID. Then, depending on the layout, it must be enabled by adding the layout ID to the layout.ID's property.

There are some layout ID's already defined in the config.properties file. There are built-in layout ID's that are available in Openspace by default. There are sample layouts that have a layout ID defined. You can also create your own layout ID's. Layout ID's are in the format layout.n = (x) where
  • n is the ID of the layout. This can be whatever you want.
  • x is the number of boxes you require. You can have more than one box, and boxes can be horizontal as well as vertical. See the layout IDs below.

To enable sample layout IDs and new layout IDs, add the layout ID's property. By default, the layout.ID's property is configured as follows: layout.IDs = 1a,2a,3b,3c

The following built-in layouts are defined:
Layout ID Layout
layout.1a = (1)
layout.2a = (1,2)
layout.3b = (1,1),(2,3)
layout.3c = (1,2),(3,3)
The following custom sample layouts are defined:
Layout ID Layout
layout.3a = (1,2,3)
layout.4a = (1,2,3,4)
layout.4b = (1,1,2),(3,4,2)
layout.4c = (1,1,1),(2,3,4)
layout.4d = (1,2,3),(4,4,4)
layout.4e = (1,2,2),(1,3,4)
layout.4f = (1,1),(2,3),(4,4)
