Sidepanel Glossary
Sidepanel Menu
All sidepanel keyboard hardware controls (digipots, function and dialog
buttons) have an associated control element within the display. This control
element is placed as near as possible to the hardware control. The control
elements belonging to the softkeys have two tasks:
• Identify the function of the control
• A mouse click on the control element results in the same action, like
pressing button.
The controls belonging to the digipots describe the function of the digipots.
Every dialog of this format is called a menu. Associated functions are
grouped whenever possible. A group of co-operating analog controls is
formed by stacking up to four bar graphs into one column. If a menu has
more than one bar graph column the column must be mapped (delegated)
onto the digipots. This delegation is done when the grouped functions are
activated (e.g. ”Mask On” or ”Border On”) from this menu or with any
other key belonging to the same function group. When an analog control
column is delegated, the digipot designators are updated.
The menus are structured using mainly 3D effects to provide a clear and
appealing user interface without using many colors. Colors are used to
signal events or represent states.
