Workspaces and presets
| Holds | Use it to | |
|---|---|---|
| Workspace | Nodes, wires, rack, radio settings, band-plan region | Keep a whole receiver |
| Template | A ready-made receiver, built in | Start a common setup |
| Example | A whole working workspace, built in | Learn which nodes a job needs |
| Preset | Settings and channels of every open radio | Get back to a known state |
| Bookmark | A frequency, a name, and an optional mode | Retune quickly |
Workspaces
Create, switch, rename, duplicate, export, and delete workspaces from the name in the top bar. A new database starts with a Device wired to a Scope, and a Speaker. Later workspaces start empty. Changes save automatically.
One workspace runs per server. Switching changes it for every client, including phones, which can switch it too. When others are connected you confirm first, and they see who switched.
Working together
Everyone on the same server edits the same workspace. The top bar shows who is here; click your own circle to set your name. Other people's pointers, selections, and drags show live on the canvas. Edits to different nodes, or different settings of one node, never overwrite each other. When two people change the same setting, the later one wins.
Undo
Use the top-bar arrows, Ctrl/⌘ Z, and Ctrl/⌘ Shift Z. Undo takes back your own last change
and keeps what others did since. It changes the running receiver: undoing an added channel closes
it, and undoing a dial move tunes back. Moves of one control within a second count as one step.
The server keeps 100 steps per workspace.
Copy and paste
Select nodes, then Ctrl/⌘ C and Ctrl/⌘ V. Copies land beside the originals with the wires
between them. A pasted Device node needs its radio, recording or generator picked again. The
clipboard works across workspaces while the tab stays open.
Notes
A Note node, under Tools, holds markdown. Double-click it to write, click away to keep. It travels with the workspace and its exports. Pin it to the rack to keep it in view.
Export and import
The download button beside a workspace saves it as JSON, with its tuning. Import a workspace file adds it as a new workspace and switches to it. Radios that are present open with the saved settings. Missing ones stay disconnected and show radio not connected, so you can pick replacements.
Templates
Select a Device, or have only one, then open Library → Templates and press Apply. A template retunes that radio, sets its rate, and adds channels and outputs. Templates the radio cannot run are greyed out.
Undo removes the added nodes but leaves the radio's new frequency and rate.
Examples
Library → Examples holds whole workspaces. Import adds one as a new workspace and switches to it. A template changes the radio you have; an example brings its own.
Each row names what the example needs and the nodes it uses, so you can find one that shows a node you have not used. An example imports even without its radios: its Device nodes stay empty until you pick replacements. Each carries a Note explaining its nodes.
No radio runs on the signal generator, so it works before any hardware arrives.
Presets
A preset saves every open radio as it is now: its settings and its channels. Applying it puts them back on the matching radios open in the active workspace. It does not add or remove nodes.
Bookmarks and band plans
Bookmarks saves the selected Device's or channel's frequency under a label and tunes it back.
Bands picks the workspace's band-plan region and searches its allocations. The default is ITU Region 1. A hit tunes the selected Device, or the selected channel, moving its radio if needed. Ruler in Bands, or Band plan in a Scope's settings, draws allocations on every Scope. Hover one for details, click it to tune.
