The building blocks of GS Screens are the widgets
used to create the GS Screens. When you click Add
GS Screen from the Navigation Tree menu, you will
be on a clear GS Screen with a widget menu. Different
types of widgets can be added from this menu and
then edited by right-clicking for the widget's Proper-
ties menu for more editing options. The Image Li-
brary is available from this menu for downloading
and saving images for your GS Screen. See Section

about building your GS Screen, and Section 9.4.3.,
Widget Editor topic for more information about
working with widgets.

firmation window appears: click OK to set the GS
Screen as your new system home page (no undo) or
close this window. After a GS Screen has been set as
a system home page, it may be disabled by uncheck-

9.3.1. Exporting the GS .ZIP
Exporting a GS screen sends the floor plan to an-
other user for viewing without publishing it for all
logged-in users to see. All GS Screens that are export-
ed will be saved in .ZIP format. The .ZIP file will
know which level of the tree it was created from auto-
matically. Each GS screen will contain: the Site Man-
ager version, GS screen schema, and the level in the
tree the screen was created in. The .ZIP version has to
be less than or equal to the Site Manager version and
GS schema installed on the customer server in order
for the screen to be imported.
1. Open a GS screen and click the GS Screens drop-
down menu.
