Sometimes you want to save particular view for consistent screenshots in your reports.

Image Added

To save the current view, go to the View menu and click "Add View". The camera perspective will be saved for later viewing.


The screenshot tool saves the current view to clipboard for pasting into reports or presentations. Screenshots can be taken in 1x, 2x or 5x resolution so that you always have clear, crisp images to share.

Panels and tabs can be dragged out of Haul Infinity and onto a second screen for easier viewing.

To support multiple screens:

  1. Go to the Network tab
  2. Select and drag the Cycle Time Analysis tab onto a new screen.
  3. Select and drag the Charts tab onto a new screen.
  4. To dock the tabs, double click on the header bar.

Haul Infinity is available in a variety of colours and contrasts, depending on what suits your tastes.

Different themes are available under Tools > Skin. We recommend "Visual Studio 2013 Light" and "Metropolis Dark".
