The screen
The screen has two parts:
-
The toolbar at the top.

The map below the toolbar.
The filter panel appears at the right of the map when you open it.

The Filter connections button shows a number when filters are active. The number is the count of the active filter criteria.
2. Map
The map shows the single line diagram of one substation. The plugin draws the connections on top of the diagram.
The primary diagram is slightly faded. Thus the IEDs and the connections are easier to see.
When the plugin searches the connection routes, it shows the message Optimising connection routes….
The plugin first shows a preview of the routes.
Then it replaces the preview with the searched routes.
