Automatic Memorization of Layout Changes
When you exit Smart Chart the system remembers the last used chart layout (including the last changes made to this chart layout) and the changes in the time bar navigation area, even if you have not explicitly saved them. The system loads the last used chart layout the next time the patient is called. It is irrelevant here whether the chart layout previously loaded is a standard chart layout predefined in Customizing or is a user-defined chart layout.
Features
The system saves the changes to the chart layout and the time bar navigation area as follows:
For each user, layout and patient | For each patient (for all users) | For each user (for all patients and layouts) |
|---|---|---|
Rearrange Graphs | Manual Sorting | Height setting of time bar navigation area |
Show/Hide Graph | ||
Remove Graph | ||
Show/Hide Measurements in Line Graphs | ||
Show/Hide Grid Lines in Line Graphs | ||
Show/Hide Legend in Line Graphs | ||
Width of first column in graph |
Activities
If you want to discard the as yet unsaved changes in the layout, you can revert to the original chart layout by using the 
(Restore Chart Layout (Shift + R)
) pushbutton. The system only activates the pushbutton if there are unsaved changes in the loaded chart layout.
In the case of predefined chart layouts from Customizing, the original layout is restored.
In the case of user-specific chart layouts, the last status saved is restored.
Example
The standard chart layout is loaded the first time a patient is called. You can then adjust the chart layout to meet your requirements by changing display options, for example the display of measurement labeling, by removing non required graphs or by rearranging the various graphs.
If you now exit the patient without saving these changes and later call up the patient again, you find the chart layout just as you left it.
