Live Data grid - Zone view

This view allows you to create empty live data zones and to see a list of existing live data zones. From here you can open a property sheet on which you can populate the live data zones with pre-existing live data points.

The view is opened by double-clicking a checked out live data configuration object and selecting the Zone tab.
