Other functions

firesys layout contains many useful functions for editing your data in this area of the software.

The functions

Layout-Manager

→ Main article about the Layout-Manager

Create a new colour scheme or edit an existing one.

Apply

Select an existing colour scheme and apply it to all text, graphics and tables in your document.

Change font size

Change the font size of your entire document at the touch of a head. You can adjust the font size within a range of -30 per cent to +60 per cent. The resizing includes all text and table formats. Graphics are excluded from the resizing. The currently selected value is indicated by the note "current font size".

Numbered list

By clicking on the "Numbered" list button, you have two options for editing your existing lists.

Restart

Start an already existing numbering new.

Continue

Here you can continue an already existing numbering.

Change column widths

In the firesys layout you have the option of optimising the display of particularly detailed or extensive tables. Two options are available to you:

To the largest number in the table

The width of the number columns is determined depending on the "widest" number. The columns are then formatted with the same width according to this value.

To the largest number in the column

Each column of numbers is individually formatted according to the "widest" number. This results in an uneven column width, which, however, avoids any empty spaces.

Align elements

Click on the button "Align elements" to align wide tables and marginalia in the entire document to the set type area.

	Good to know
	The firesys layout tab is displayed only if you are in firesys layout.

Apply colour scheme
