View Layouts
View → Type
EmStream supports six view layouts for the main content area. Each layout presents telemetry data differently. The active layout applies to the current window.
Layout Types
| Layout | Description |
|---|---|
| Grid | Channel values in a configurable grid of numerical gauges — see Data Grid |
| Plots | Scrolling time plots of selected channels — see Live Plots |
| Track | GPS track map with live vehicle position — see Track Map |
| Track + Grid | Track map on the left, data grid on the right |
| Plot + Grid | Time plots on the left, data grid on the right |
| Plot + Plot | Two independent plot areas side by side |
Split layouts remember their divider position between sessions.
Multi-Window
View → Window Count opens 1 to 4 simultaneous EmStream windows. Each window can use a different layout type independently — for example, one window showing the track map and another showing plots.
All windows share the same telemetry connection and receive the same live data.
Switching Layouts
- Open View → Type.
- Select the desired layout.
- The main area reloads immediately.
Configure the channels and appearance for each layout using the setup dialogs — the pencil icon on Grid and Plots views opens the relevant setup page.
