Figure 57. Metering Screen Docking Controls
Dragging the blue square to the “up” (locator A), “right” (locator B), or “down” (locator C) arrow box places
the selected metering screen across the top, along the side, or at the bottom of the window. Once placed,
the screen’s thumbtack icon can be clicked to dock the screen on the corresponding top, right, or lower
bar. A docked screen is viewed by hovering the mouse pointer over the docked screen.
Dragging the blue square to one of the four arrow boxes (locator D) places the screen inside the selected
window according to the arrow box selected. A metering screen can be placed as a tab inside the
selected window by dropping the screen on the tab box at the center of the four arrow boxes.
