Layouts

​

How Layouts Work

Your workspace is split into panes. Each pane holds one panel, such as your assigned call, Active Units or Radio. You can add, resize and rearrange panes, then save the result as a layout. Unit groups are called Active Squads on Police, Active Apparatus on Fire, Active Rigs on EMS and Active Vehicles on DOT.

Split Panes

​

Adding a pane

​

Managing panes

• Drag the dividers between panes to resize them.
• Click Detach to window to turn a pane into a floating window, and Attach to layout to put it back.
• Click Close panel to remove a pane. If you closed your calls pane, click Restore calls to bring it back.

What you can add depends on the panel. Most panels offer Run, Records, Calls, Active Units, unit groups, Radio, Tone Board, Signal Manager, Timers, Live Map, Penal Code and 10-Codes. Dispatch adds the Call Editor, Call History and Radio Quick-Actions, and Law adds its hearings, warrants, licences and bonds cards. The Dispatch call editor can be split into panes too, for example call details next to assigned units. That layout is remembered.

Saving and Sharing Layouts

Open the CAD menu and go to Layout. A share code only copies the arrangement of panes, not any calls or units.

​

Custom Layout Views

On Police, Fire, EMS and DOT, you can add up to 6 extra tabs next to Home and Map. Each has its own name, icon and layout. Hover a view’s tab to edit, share or delete it.
