Creating Network Maps

6-42 Customizing Your Map

Adding Notes to Multiple Nodes

You can also add the same note to multiple node icons simultaneously via the Multi-Node

Properties window. Doing so will overwrite any existing notes attached to the selected

nodes, without warning.

To add a single note to multiple selected nodes:

1. Open and activate the view which contains the nodes to which you’d like to

add a shared note, and use shift-click or ctrl-click to select the appropriate

nodes. (Or, if you’re using a Map View, you can click and drag to select

multiple icons.)

2. In the primary window menu bar, select Edit—>Properties.

In the toolbar, click Properties icon.

Right-click on the selected device, then select Properties from the resulting

menu.

3. Enter the desired notes text in the Notes field available on the General

Properties tabbed page. As illustrated in Figure 6-29, text entered in this

Notes field will also be displayed in the Object Notes window and the

Properties window for each individual selected node.

Notes added via the Multi-Node Properties window will overwrite any existing notes on

the selected nodes, without warning. Once you have added a note to multiple nodes, it will

be displayed in each individual node’s Properties and Object Note windows; you cannot

display it in the Multi-Node Properties window, however, unless the same group of nodes

(or a subset of them) is selected.

Changing the Layout of Map Objects

NetSight Element Manager provides a variety of layout tools that allow you to arrange

node icons, symbols, and all other map elements with the click of a mouse. You can layer

objects; align a group of selected objects by left edge, right edge, top, or bottom; re-size

objects to match the controlling object’s height, width, or both; space selected objects

evenly (either horizontally or vertically); arrange selected objects in a grid pattern; or even

create a ring of objects. Each of these features is described below.

The Layout Tools are available both via the Map and Alignment Toolbars (see

Figure 6-20, page 6-27) and the Layout menu on the primary window menu bar; these

options will only be active when a map window is active.

TIP

You can also change the poll settings for multiple nodes; see Editing Poll Settings for

Multiple Nodes in Chapter 4, List Views, for more information.
