User Interface
When you open G-View, the following user interface appears. It is divided into five areas.
As in all of G-Core's program modules, G-View displays the Menu bar and Toolbar in the upper part of the window and the Sidebar menus on the left-hand side, while the largest area is taken up by the Viewers, where you can add media channels to see your camera images. The number and size of the viewer windows can be varied. Underneath the viewer area is the Control bar, used for controlling recorders, alarm lists and telecontrol.
