Overview pane

The Overview pane shows an overview of the entire MobiLink Monitor session. You can navigate through the session using the Marquee Tool, which is the box inside the Overview pane.

Active synchronizations, completed synchronizations, and failed synchronizations are represented with colors. To set the colors, open the MobiLink Monitor, choose Tools » Options, and then click the Overview tab.

See Options window.

You can close the Overview pane by deselecting it in the View menu.

You can also separate the Overview pane from the rest of the MobiLink Monitor window. In the Options window, open the Overview tab and clear the Keep overview window attached to main window checkbox.

Marquee tool

The Marquee Tool is the small box that appears in the Overview pane. You can use the Marquee Tool to see different data, or to see data at different granularity. The area represented within the box is displayed in the chart and graph panes. You can use the Marquee Tool as follows:

  • Click in the Overview pane to move the Marquee Tool and the start time of the data shown in the chart or utilization graph.

  • Drag in the Overview pane to redraw the Marquee Tool to change the Marquee Tool's location and size and change the start time and the range of data. If you make the marquee box smaller, you shorten the interval of the visible data in the chart, which makes more detail visible.

To change the color of the Marquee Tool
  1. Choose Tools » Options.

  2. Click the Overview tab.

  3. Select a new color in the Marquee field.

  4. Click OK.
