24 Using the Kaleido Layout Editor software

Kaleido Layout Editor (KEdit) is used to create layouts and configure the Kaleido-K2. When the computer running KEdit is connected to the Kaleido-K2 through a TCP/IP network, KEdit can export the Layouts to the Kaleido-K2. It can also open the Kaleido-K2's current layout, and manipulate it in real time, so that changes made to the layout in KEdit appear immediately at the Kaleido-K2 monitor wall output. The modified Layout can then be saved in the Kaleido-K2's database.

The menu and toolbar area of the KEdit screen appears as follows:

1

2

3

4

5

6

7

1 The Kaleido Layout Editor window header

2 Pull-down menus.

3 The Edit Toolbar.

4 The Component toolbar, with tools used to insert components into the on-screen layout.

5 The title bar for the active window identifies the layout being displayed.

6 The active layout area

7 The Data Display Window, showing data and status for certain items.

Each of these is discussed and described in detail in the following sections.

In addition to the icons in the toolbars, many of the menu commands have keyboard shortcuts. These are indicated in the menus themselves, and are all either CRTL+(letter) commands, ALT+(letter), or Function keys (F#, where # is an integer between 1 and 12) corresponding to the 12 function keys at the top of the keyboard. Thus in many cases there are three different ways to access a specific command or control panel.
