Toolbars
SystemTap GUI currently has two toolbars built in; an Action Bar for file and execution operations and a Perspective Selector to jump to different perspectives.
Action Bar
- <img src="images/toolbars/import_wiz.gif"> Import Dashboard Module Location - This option brings up a dialogue box prompting the user for a module file which is then loaded into the Modules Browser .
- <img src="images/toolbars/start_script.gif"> Run - This option runs the selected module in the Modules Browser .
- <img src="images/toolbars/pause_script.gif"> Pause - This option pauses the selected module in the Modules Browser . Know that this method of pausing is an illusion; the graph data is simply not updated while the script continues to run. This inability to truly pause is inherent in SystemTap itself.
- <img src="images/toolbars/stop_obj.gif"> Stop - This option stops the selected module in the Modules Browser .
- <img src="images/toolbars/mod_obj.gif"> Create a New Dashboard module - This option creates a new module in the Modules Browser .
Perspective Selector
- <img src="images/toolbars/ide.png"> IDE Perspective - This launches the IDE Perspective, useful for writing and executing scripts.
- <img src="images/toolbars/graphing.png"> Graphing Perspective - This launches the Graphing Perspective, useful for graphing scripts.
- <img src="images/toolbars/dash.png"> Dashboard Perspective - This launches the Dashboard Perspective, useful for multiple graphing.
