11 | TITLE Synchronize tree scrolling |
---|
12 | |
---|
13 | OCCURRENCE ARB_NT/Tree/Sync tree scrolling.. |
---|
14 | |
---|
15 | DESCRIPTION Allows to synchronize scrolling of two or more tree-views based on the |
---|
16 | set of species currently displayed on screen. |
---|
17 | |
---|
18 | To use this feature you need to open a second tree display |
---|
19 | as explained in LINK{newwindow.hlp}. |
---|
20 | |
---|
21 | After opening a second tree view, the selection list |
---|
22 | in the "Synchronize tree scrolling" window will show that view. |
---|
23 | |
---|
24 | To help you to indentify the views, the name of the currently |
---|
25 | displayed tree is shown behind the view name. The view names |
---|
26 | themselves are just 'ARB' followed by a number like in 'ARB (1)' |
---|
27 | for all but the 1st view. These numbers match those in the window |
---|
28 | title of the tree views. |
---|
29 | |
---|
30 | By selecting that view, the tree view of the first arb |
---|
31 | window ("slave-view") will synchronize with the |
---|
32 | second view ("master-view") once. |
---|
33 | |
---|
34 | * at any time you may press the 'Sync scroll' button to |
---|
35 | perform a instant synchronization of the slave-view or |
---|
36 | |
---|
37 | * you may select the 'Auto-sync'-toggle. If checked, the |
---|
38 | slave-view will automatically synchronize whenever the |
---|
39 | master-view does change. |
---|
40 | |
---|
41 | The synchronization is based on visible species only (ie. folded |
---|
42 | groups are ignored completely; in master- and slave-view). |
---|
43 | |
---|
44 | During synchronization the slave-view gets scrolled to the position |
---|
45 | containing most of the species currently visible in the master-view. |
---|
46 | If there are multiple such positions, the "topmost" such position |
---|
47 | is chosen. |
---|
48 | |
---|
49 | NOTES Each tree view has its own separate 'Synchronize tree scrolling' configuration. |
---|
50 | |
---|
51 | EXAMPLES You may also use more than two views for scroll synchronization. |
---|
52 | |
---|
53 | For example open 3 windows and |
---|
54 | - synchronize the 2nd and 3rd view to the 1st view or |
---|
55 | - synchronize the 2nd to 1st and the 3rd to the 2nd view |
---|
56 | |
---|
57 | If you configure a looped dependency, ARB will switch off |
---|
58 | one dependency to avoid a deadlock. |
---|
59 | |
---|
60 | WARNINGS When used with BIG trees synchronizing two views may be quite slow. |
---|
61 | In such cases it's not recommended to link the views with 'Auto-sync'. |
---|
62 | Instead you may want to request each sync manually using the sync button. |
---|
