h2. View modes

Galicaster Dashboard provides two views: a *panel view* to monitor your agents providing auto-refreshed screenshots and basic data, and a *calendar view*, where the recording schedule can be easily checked and modified. In both cases, the agents on the screen can be filtered according to different criteria, so that only the relevant information is displayed.

h3. Panel View

h3. List view
The panel view is aimed to monitor the agents in your installation. Agents can be filtered by their status or their upcoming events, and also hidden at will. Screenshots are refreshed automatically.

The panel view has two layouts:
* A *mosaic* with screenshots of all the agents and shortcuts to the main actions.
* A *table* listing all the agents with detailed information such as state, free disk space, next recording, etc.

h4. Mosaic layout

From the mosaic view we can see the agent status with a preview (screenshot) of their UI. The following actions are available by pressing on the different buttons on the screen:
* Info: The agent view information (explained [later|#Agent View]).
* Calendar: The recording schedule of the given agent.
* Connect: Start a VNC connection to the agent, so that it can be operated remotely (Galicaster only).
* Hide: Stop displaying the agent in the mosaic.
