Infogrid

All incoming Infos are saved in a history on the client, the so-called Infogrid. The Infogrid can be accessed by clicking on the infogitter_ico icon in the taskbar.

 

This icon only is visible if new messages were received and if in the configuration of the Infoclient the option New Infos in taskbar is selected.

 

After an Info has finished, it can be replayed from the Infogrid.

 

Infogrid_Infogrid2

 

In the Infogrid, received Infos are listed chronologically. With each Info, it is listed who has sent the Info and who has received the Info next to the text itself.

 

Infos that were addressed to a previously logged-in user are listed in the Infogrid as well, but the text won't be available and the Info can't be played anew.

 

If you want to hide the Infogrid symbol, act as following:

 

Rightclick on the symbol infogitter_ico > Hide until next Info

 

The symbol now will be hidden and will be shown again only upon receiving a new Info. You can use this feature, e.g. if you have left your desktop and want to be informed if in your absence a new Info has arrived.

 

In order to facilitate the use of the Infogrid, all Infos are displayed in the same font-size by default, regardless of the font-size configured in the Info. In case it is needed that all Infos in the Infogrid are displayed in their original font-size, then this feature can be disabled by sending an Inifile via the App Configuration (Clients -> Configuration). For disabling the uniform font-size display, please proceed as following:

 

1. Open the app Configuration (Clients -> Configuration).

 

2. Click on button-neu to open the configuration mask.

 

3. In the tab Client settings, select the following setting and remove the check mark on the right.

 

Infogitter_Configuration_Example

 

 

4. Save and send the Inifile-Info.

 

For enabling the uniform font-size again, simply send an Inifile-Info and set the value HistorySameSize=true.

 

By clicking on the + symbol in front of each Info, you an expand the detail-view of the Info.

 

Infogrid_Infogrid

 

If the detail-view is not desired, then you can disable it by inserting HistoryAllowExpanding=false in the Inifile of the Infoclient.
