Glossary Item Box
The graphical map is an editable arrangement interface that allows you to plan and see how tables are arranged within a location. This gives you a holistic view of your areas and makes managing your tables and areas easier.
Enable the graphical map in the Add/Edit Areas and Tables dialogue, refer to the Add Areas and Tables page for information on how to enable the graphical map.
When you open an Area the table screen is opened and you will be greeted with a grid like interface.

Adding and editing tables is similar to adding tables without the graphical map enabled, however there are several key features.
When you Add or Edit a table you can specify the X,Y grid location, this is the position on the grid. The X,Y co-ordinates starts from the top left corner of the grid, where X refers to the horizontal pane and Y refers to the vertical pane.
The Width and Height fields allow you to configure the dimensions of the table.

You can also edit the table directly from the graphical map.

Note: If the table is of size 1,1 then it will only resize larger.
Removing a Table
Removing a table is exactly the same with or without the Graphical Map enabled. Refer to the Removing the Areas and Tables page for a guide on how to remove tables.

Each table you add to the Graphical Map is actually a button.
