Graphical Panel Controls: Grid

The Grid control is a quick and simple way to view multiple data elements in tabular fashion within a graphical panel (Figure 1). The data to be displayed is selected by choosing a signal group; these groups can be configured using theSignal List or Signal Plot features of Vehicle Spy. The divider between the signal descriptions and values can be moved by clicking and dragging.
