View file location

The mvw file is used to store Network Configurator and Network Monitor views.

  • This file stores multiple views.
  • By default, there is initially no view file in a site’s view folder. The IDE attempts to load an existing dflt.mvw file when the Network Configurator/Network Monitor are opened.
  • If there is no existing dflt.mvw in the view folder, then the IDE creates a new dflt.mvw file.

In the Network Configurator, both the NetConfig file name and the current view file name are shown in the IDE title.

  • The name of the currently opened mvw file is appended to the title. The default is dflt.mvw.
  • The original *.view and monitor_dflt.mvw files that were created by previous versions can also be loaded.
