Customising Your Display

Field Track offers great scope in designing your own screen layouts in the "Advanced" interface and all your settings can be saved for later use, or save to disk to be shared with other Field Track users through the menu option: "Options" - "Save/Load Screen Layout". Only "Professional" users can save Screen Layout files to disk.

The display grids in Field Track are an ingenious way to provide the full power of the computer to you. While the default layouts should provide all the information you want, you can decide if you want less, or more. With the ability to save and share the designs both with regards to the screen, display grid colours and layouts, this provides unequaled information display possibilities. For example you can have a simple chemical application list and with only a few mouse clicks you can also see your costs per problem, or product type usage.

Field list can very quickly be grouped by holding farm, customer, crop type, variety, as well as many other available database fields.
