ScanExpert Viewer Alerts
Visual alerts generated from a script running in the ScanExpert Viewer Grid will be displayed in the Alert Dialog. The Alert Dialog will always pop-up at the lower-right of your computer screen.
The Alert Dialog is a grid where each row is an alert message and the columns specify the date and time of the alert, the symbol that generated the alert, and the alert text.
You can move the Alert Dialog to a new location on your screen by clicking on the blue title bar at the top of the dialog and dragging your mouse cursor.
To mark an alert as read, simply click once on that row with your mouse. The green note icon will be removed indicating that this alert has been acknowledged.
To delete a single alert, highlight the alert and then press the Delete key on your keyboard. To delete multiple alerts, right-click in the Alert Dialog and select either Clear All Alerts or Clear Viewed Only.
From the Alert Dialog menu you can disable the visual alerts system or save all of the alerts to a text file. You can also toggle the visual alerts system from the Grid Options menu.
Whenever you double-click on an alert, the security associated with that alert will be highlighted in the ScanExpert Viewer Grid.
To keep the Alert Dialog window at the forefront, check the Stay on Top checkbox.
If the Alert Dialog becomes hidden, you can select the Unhide Alert Window option from the Grid Options menu.
Filter Alerts
Visual alerts generated from within a Filter use a more compact Filter Alert Dialog. This alert dialog will always pop up in the lower-right of the filter window in which the alert was generated.
