Ribbon Menu

The main interface in Circuit Tools is a ‘Ribbon’ style menu that consists of a File button to access the main menu, a Quick-access toolbar, and the different Tabbed menu items.

You can toggle the visibility of the Ribbon menu on or off by using the Ctrl + F1 shortcut, use the R shortcut or the minimise/maximise button to the right of the toolbar.

 

Hiding the menu gives you more room to analyse the data.

Font and Colours

To change the font used in the software and colour used on the laps, use the Fonts and colours menu on the Home tab. You can also change the opacity (transparency) of unselected channels in this menu.

If you have enabled Auto colour laps, the fastest lap will always be displayed in red on the graph. To manually change the colour, switch off this feature and double-click the coloured box next to the Lap Number.

Language

You can chose between two languages in the software, English and Deutsch. Select the currently used language on the right of the Home menu and use the drop-down menu to select the other available language.

IMPORTANT - Changing the language will cause the software to immediately close and reopen in the selected language without reopening the file in use.
