In the example that follows, you will see that the
Man Dflt Stereo
profile ‘mask’ is
displayed by the active tabs in the
Profile Editor
main menu. The inactive tabs are
grayed-out. What this means is that the four tabs for
Connection Setup, Matrix
Map, View Matrix
and
Global Unit Settings
can be viewed and amended when
the profile is opened in
Tool
Box
. The other tabs can only be viewed and changed
by making

Tool
Box

How Do I Utilize Profile Masks?
The reason you may wish to adjust your profile ‘mask’ for custom profiles is so
that you can easily create common settings among different profiles by utilizing
the
Current runtime
profile.
First you would set the tab settings you want to use for several profiles in
Current
Runtime
. You can then create and name new profiles, changing only the tabs
that require different settings by creating individual ‘masks’.
If you decide subsequently that you wish to change a user created profile’s
‘mask’, you can do this by opening the profile, clicking on the
Edit Profile
drop-
down menu, and then
Properties
. This will open the
Profile Properties
menu box
and allow you to select or deselect menu items.
