TRAVERSE Global v11.1

Getting Started with TRAVERSE

TRAVERSE has a similar menu system to other Windows software. TRAVERSE applications are listed on the lower left-side of the screen, with the selected application and its functions appearing in the open area above. With the new tabbed function feature, you can open multiple functions at once and keep them neatly organized.

The Application Bar menu always opens with the Favorites menu showing. You can use this menu to consolidate the functions you use most often in a single place for faster access.

Task Pane

On some screens, on the right side, you will find a Tasks tab. This tab opens the Task Pane, which allows you to view information you might otherwise need to access by using a different function. In other words, it is a shortcut panel by which you can access pertinent information for the main screen.

You can pin and unpin the task pane to the side of the TRAVERSE window by clicking the pushpin icon. When the pushpin icon points down, , you can always access the task pane. When the pushpin icon points to the left, , you must hover your cursor over the Tasks tab on the right-hand side of the TRAVERSE window to use the task pane. You also have the ability to adjust the size of the task pane.

Note: You can select True from the ShowTaskPanel field in the View > Preferences... screen to default task panes across the entire system to automatically expand when opening applicable functions. Selecting False in the ShowTaskPanel field defaults task panes to stay closed when opening applicable functions. Even when set to False, you can always use the pushpin icon to pin and unpin the task pane to the right-hand side of the TRAVERSE window.
