In this article we will introduce you to several ways of switching between works areas and variants.
Instructions
Work areas and variants represent the basic structure of your shopfloor and divide it into different areas. The active work area is displayed completely in VR and is bordered by a white marker line. The inactive stations are shown approximated in VR.
You have several possibilities to switch between different work areas and variants while you are in Halocline or to edit them directly. The following ways are available:
On the desktop
Select the desired work area and variant on the desktop and open them by clicking on the Layout or Performance button. If you have already started Halocline in Layout or Performance, you can easily change the work area by selecting the desired work area from the dropdown menu at the top of the desktop window.
In VR menu
Open the menu in VR and click on "Load" in the menu tab. In the opened window you can now directly select a new work area by clicking on the name. By clicking on the arrow you will get to the sub-selection of variants. Simply select your desired variant by clicking on the name. Here you can also access old saves.
About the VR-Label
In Halocline Layout, you can also switch work areas by clicking on the work area's name label.
Hint:
Creating a variant from an old save
If you want to restore an old version, click on the "Three dots" menu at a variant in the start screen and select the menu item "Manage". From the list of old saves you can select the desired variant by clicking on "Create new variant". Now you have a variant with the old state and can simply exchange and compare it in VR with the new one.
