Summary

Configures the tracks in the active view window.

Description

When you select this command, a dialog will be displayed that allows you to specify how tracks are to be drawn in the active view window.

The dialog gives you the following choices of how to draw tracks.

In solar system simulations, the information that is displayed in labels can be specified by choosing the longest and shortest time periods that you want displayed. For example, if you want labels in the form Feb 17, 18:36, you specify a longest time period of Months and a shortest time period of Minutes. Another example is if you want labels in the form 18:36:15.8, you specify a longest time period of Hours and a shortest time period of Deciseconds.

There is also a field that allows you to specify the size and duration of tracks, by choosing the maximum number of time steps that are shown.

The dialog also gives you the following choices of what to draw tracks relative to.
