Ch. 12 – TaskbarsContinue to add buttons to the taskbar in the same fashion until you are satisfied that you have added all ofyour favorite functions.Note: The Macro taskbar pushbutton uses a defined computer path to search for the stored Macrofile. If you decide to relocate the Macro file, you must update the taskbar button by redefining thepath.Note: You are limited to a taskbar with 50 buttons.Modifying the Taskbar AppearanceAfter developing the taskbar, you may choose to modify its appearance by changing button colors, buttonnames, text fonts, the position of the buttons on the taskbar, or the appearance of the taskbar.Any of these changes can be easily accomplished through the Taskbar Setup window. Simply select thefunction or macro that you wish to change by highlighting it from the list. Then select the modify button,make the changes using the same procedures you used to develop the buttons originally. Click the OKbutton when you are finished and the Taskbar will be immediately modified.You can change the relative position of the buttons on the taskbar by simply highlighting the function andmoving its position up or down on the Taskbar Setup screen. Additionally, you may change the number ofcolumns that the taskbar window is divided into using the column feature in the taskbar setup window.Note: If you choose a number of columns that does not divide equally into the number of functionsand macro buttons you have developed, the grid of the floating taskbar window will automaticallyfill the “extra boxes” with non-functional buttons in the default beige color.You will notice, at times, that the font on certain buttons will appear faded. This indicates that theparticular function is not available due to other circumstances present at the time. For example, if an imagehas not been captured yet, certain edit features will not be available. However, as soon as an image isacquired, the font on those buttons will become more contrasted to the button color, indicating that thefunction is now available.Note: Until you select annotate, any buttons that relate to annotation will not be functional, evenafter you have captured an image. Once you select annotate from the drop down menu or as ataskbar button of its own, the annotation function buttons will become functional.Taskbar Size and LocationAs an onscreen tool, the taskbar window can “float” on the screen in front of any open image windows(captured or Live images). The position of the Taskbar is not arbitrary, but instead can be set by the user.If the taskbar hinders your viewing of any images, you can do one of four things: modify its size, change itslocation, “roll it up”, or make it disappear from the screen.User Guide to the SPOT Insight Camera 229
