arrive at a saved GS Screen, you are automatically in 
Run mode. When in Run mode, right-click to bring up 
the Actions menu. After creating a GS Screen, toggle

ton to Edit mode so that you can make changes.

9.2.3. Widgets and Images

The building blocks of GS Screens are the widgets 

used to create the GS Screens. When you click Add 
GS Screen
 from the Navigation Tree menu, you will 
be on a clear GS Screen with a widget menu. Different 
types of widgets can be added from this menu and 
then edited by right-clicking for the widget’s Proper-
ties
 menu for more editing options. The Image Li-
brary is available from this menu for downloading 
and saving images for your GS Screen. See Section 
9.4.1., Adding GS Screens
 for more information 
about building your GS Screen, and Section 9.4.3., 
Widget Editor
 topic for more information about 
working with widgets.

9.2.4. Setting a GS Screen as Your 

Home Page

Once on a GS Screen, click Set As System Home 

Page located off the My Info drop-down menu to set 
a GS Screen as your home page and overwrite any 
previously set GS Screen system home page. A con-
firmation window appears: click OK to set the GS 
Screen as your new system home page (no undo) or 
close this window. After a GS Screen has been set as 
a system home page, it may be disabled by uncheck-
ing the Enable System Home Page checkbox in the 
My Info drop-down menu under User Info.

9.2.6. Working With Widget 

Parameters

Text-based widgets can use replaceable parame-

ters that are used to help generate the actual contents 
of the label when displayed within the widget. For 
more information on widget parameters, refer to Sec-
tion 9.4.4., Widget Parameters - Customization
.

9.3. GS Screen Actions

9.3.1. Exporting the GS .ZIP

Exporting a GS screen sends the floor plan to an-

other user for viewing without publishing it for all 
logged-in users to see. All GS Screens that are export-
ed will be saved in .ZIP format. The .ZIP file will 
know which level of the tree it was created from auto-
matically. Each GS screen will contain: the Site Man-
ager version, GS screen schema, and the level in the 
tree the screen was created in. The .ZIP version has to 
be less than or equal to the Site Manager version and 
GS schema installed on the customer server in order 
for the screen to be imported.

1.  Open a GS screen and click the GS Screens drop-

down menu.
