Windows are created on the Screens. The screens are the monitors. The different sizes of grandMA3 hardware have different amounts of screens. The grandMA3 onPC has quick access to open 5 displays with a large screen area and 2 displays with a small screen area. This offers access to the same primary screens as a grandMA3 full-size. For more information, see Screen Allocation.
There are several possible Screen Configurations for each user profile. A user always has a screen configuration assigned. Each screen configuration stores a set of view button assignments and the current window set up on the screens. The screen configurations can be selected in the User menu.
Most screens are empty in a new show. An empty screen is a blank space where each user can create their own arrangement of windows. This arrangement can be stored as a View.
On the right side or top of each screen, there can be a number of View Buttons. Views can be assigned to these buttons. This allows for fast access to recall a stored view or update a view by storing it again.
A new show has six factory-made views assigned to the first six view buttons on each of the big screens. The two smaller screens have four and two views assigned. These can be changed or deleted.
A Menu is a big pop-up that covers most of the screen. The software has several menus that give access to setting up the console, system, fixtures, and much more. For more information, see Menus.
