Interface Customizing
Reading time ~3 minutes
Cinegy Capture Control is very easy to manage due to its fully customizable interface where all panels are scalable and most of them are collapsible.
Servers/Templates Panel Customizing
The Servers / Templates panel comprises two tabs by default: "Servers" and "Templates". There are 2 ways to separate this panel into two individual ones:
-
via drag-and-drop;
-
via making the panel undockable.
Drag-and-drop
Click the tab title at the bottom of the panel and drag-and-drop it to the desired position:
Floating
The Servers / Templates panel is docked by default. Right-click the panel caption and select the "Floating" context menu command:
The panel becomes floating and can be dragged to the desired position.
Dockable
Select the "Dockable" command from its context menu to dock a floating panel. Then click the title bar of the panel and drag until you see the visual hints (see the screenshot). When the desired position of the dragged panel is reached, move the pointer over the corresponding portion of the hint. The destination area will be shaded. To dock the panel to the indicated position, release the mouse button.
Docking to the left window edge
Auto Hide
The dockable panel can either be pinned to be always shown on the screen or automatically hidden and reappear when hovering the mouse pointer over the tab:
The "Servers" panel is pinned and the "Templates" panel is hidden
The panels are pinned by default, indicated by the 
icon on the panel caption bar. To auto-hide the panel, click this icon or choose the "Auto hide" context menu command:
Resizing Panels
The width can be adjusted by positioning the mouse pointer on the grid line and dragging the sizing tool to the left or the right:
The minimum width of the rightmost panel is fixed to fit all control elements.
You can also use the vertical scrollbar to display the information that does not fit the panel height:
