Trace Layout Submenu
From the submenu you can choose one of several types of trace layouts, specify a custom layout, or revert to a previous trace layout.
You can also access the menu by clicking the layout button 
in the Trace Toolbar.
Trace Layouts
You can control which traces are displayed in the layouts by selecting from the View Trace menus.
The following table describes each layout. When there are more visible traces than will fit in the trace layout, extra traces are distributed evenly in the layout as extra tabs. When there are fewer visible traces than the selected trace layout needs, the remaining trace windows will be added.
