====== Configure a view ======

Once a **Time-Location view** has been created, it is possible to modify
its display and parameters at any time.

All view settings are accessible through the
**View Properties** window.

-----

===== Accessing the view properties =====

After selecting the Time-Location view to configure, two methods
allow you to open the configuration window.

-----

==== Method 1: right-click in the view =====

===== View configuration window =====

The **View Properties** window allows you to adjust all
the parameters of the Time-Location schedule.

It is organised into two main sections:

  * a **navigation panel on the left**
  * a **central configuration area**

-----

===== Side panel =====

{{:en:time_distance:2026-03-12_21h11_27.png?200|}}

The side panel allows navigation between the different
elements of the view.

It contains in particular:

  * the **Time-Location view**
  * the different **Time-Location cells**

Each cell corresponds to a display area of the schedule
and has its own parameters.

-----

===== Configuration tabs =====

The central area contains several **configuration tabs**
allowing the view to be precisely configured.

The main tabs are:

  * **Scope**  
    defines the general structure of the view

  * **Display**  
    adjusts the display options of the schedule

  * **Distance line**  
    configures the information displayed along the project

  * **Time line**  
    defines the time scales

  * **Grids**  
    adds visual references within the view

  * **Layers**  
    controls the display of the different project layers

  * **Chart Legend**  
    displays additional information

  * **Printing**  
    configures the view printing settings

The following sections describe in detail the behaviour
of each of these tabs.
