# Customisation

The Data Palette has six tabbed windows as follows: 1) Messages, 2) Input, 3) Results, 4) Chart, 5) List & 6) Watch. The Data Palette is docked to the right side of the user interface by default however, it can be undocked by either dragging via the caption bar or by double clicking on the caption bar. Note, if you accidentally close down the Data Palette, you can restore the dialog by simply selecting: View | Data Palette. Messages Tab The Messages tab is shown in Figure 1. This tab can be hidden from the Data Palette by selecting "View" and un-checking the Messages option from the drop-down list. Alternatively, you can right mouse-click on the Messages tab and uncheck the Messages option from the drop-down list. If your Messages tab has disappeared, you can follow either of these two approaches and check the drop-down list to ensure that the option for the Messages tab is checked ON. Figure 1: Messages Tab. Input Tab The Input tab is shown in Figure 2. If you are using a language other than English, you may find you don't have enough space to display all text by default. You can therefore position the mouse over the column control separator (shown within the red circle in Figure 2) and drag the column position until all text is shown. This tab can be hidden from the Data Palette by selecting "View" and un-checking the Input option from the drop-down list. Alternatively, you can right mouse-click on the Input tab and un-check the Input option from the drop-down list. If your Input tab has disappeared, you can follow either of these two approaches and check the drop-down list to ensure that the option for the Input tab is checked ON. Figure 2: Input Tab. Results Tab The Results tab is shown in Figure 3. If you are using a language other than English, you may find you don't have enough space to display all text by default. You can therefore position the mouse over the column control separator (shown within the red circle in Figure 2) and drag the column position until all text is shown. This tab can be hidden from the Data Palette by selecting "View" and un-checking the Results option from the drop-down list. Alternatively, you can right mouse-click on the Results tab and un-check the Results option from the drop-down list. If your Results tab has disappeared, you can follow either of these two approaches and check the drop-down list to ensure that the option for the Results tab is checked ON. Note, you can customize the information displayed on the Results Tab. Firstly you can switch between SI and US Basic units from the Environment Set or right mouse-clicking on the Results display and selecting "Results Units". You can also define what information you require displayed by right mouse-clicking on the Results display and select "Visible Results". Figure 3: Results Tab. Chart Tab The chart displayed can be customized by selecting the drop down menu button shown highlighted in red in Figure 4. We have a number of chart options, i.e., density, flow pattern (two-phase flow), static pressure, static temperature, system resistance, vapor quality (two-phase flow) and velocity. The system resistance chart is displayed by default. Figure 4: Chart Tab. List Tab This is a powerful tool which allows you to display the full list of any components in the model which fall into a specific category such as pipes, boosters, valves, etc. You can make multi-selections from the list box by using either the SHIFT and Ctrl keys while left mouse clicking on the relevant element. Figure 5: List Tab. Watch Tab The "Watch" display is only active during the calculation process. This keeps a list of tasks accomplished and progress made by the solver. Normally you should not use this window as its use significantly slows down the calculation (i.e., increases calculation time). Figure 6: Watch Tab.
