Graph Screen Basics
Loading Files
Load a file into the Graph Screen by clicking on the ‘Load All’
icon in the main toolbar.
Loading Compare Files
The Graph screen also has the facility to load up to three more
files for comparison. Click on the small down arrow to the side
of the ‘Load All’ icon to expand a drop down menu. Then
select one of the ‘Load Compare File x’ items.
Removing Compare Runs
Click on the ‘Remove Run’ icon in the Graph screen (second)
toolbar and then select the relevant file to remove.
Appending Files
DriftBox files can be joined together using the ‘Append file to Main’ option, found by
clicking the arrow next to the ‘Load All’ icon.
Viewing a Text File
A DriftBox file can be opened in Notepad by selecting the ‘Open In Notepad’ option from
the ‘Load All’ drop down list. Note that for large files, it may take some time for Notepad to
load all of the lines of data.
This function can also be used to open the other text files on your SD card such as the lap
time results files.
Loading a Circuit Overlay
A circuit overlay is a template that can be
placed on the circuit map, over which the
vehicle position data can be overlaid. A
circuit overlay file can be loaded into the
map window using the ‘Load Circuit Map’
option from the Load All drop down menu.
A circuit overlay file is a standard DriftBox
file, but saved with the suffix ‘.cir’ instead of
‘.dbn’. Any file can be loaded in as an
overlay file, just change the default ‘Files of
type’ to ‘.cir’ when loading it in. For more
details on how to create a circuit overlay,
see ‘Creating a Circuit Overlay’ later in this
chapter.
Circuit files may be exchanged between DriftBox owners and may be available on the
DriftBox website and/or forums.
