View Menu
The view menu controls aspects of how the window looks. It lets you turn off the toolbar
and the status line if not required, and lets you chose a size for the image thumbnails.
Source Menu
The source menu is where you can load a previously saved image/sequence, or enter
grab mode to capture from the serial input. Both of these functions are also available
from icons on the toolbar, described later.
Pattern Menu
The Pattern menu provides various options concerning how images and sequences are
manipulated. Here you will find options to sort the images in various ways, or to save
captured images, or to delete images from the configuration (but observe that this does
not delete the image from disk).
Window Menu
The Window menu only has the option to enable/disable ‘snap to grid’ when moving the
window around.
Toolbar Icons
The generator toolbar icons have the following functions.
New configuration
Open existing configuration
Save configuration
Import existing image or sequence
Capture data from serial input
Delete image or sequence from current configuration

Halt the import of patterns – useful if you start loading a sequence, then decide it is the
wrong one.
Reload a selected image or sequence – if, for example loading was halted before it could
complete
Reload all images and sequences.
