All ADF-GUI modules have the SCM menu on the left-hand side, on most systems represented by a small SCM logo. In this menu all ADF-GUI and BAND-GUI modules are listed, as well as COSMO-RS and some general commands. Some modules are specific for the ADF-GUI or the BAND-GUI, these start with ADF or BAND respectively. The other modules may be used with both the ADF-GUI and the BAND-GUI.
You can easily switch between the different modules of the ADF-GUI using this menu:
When you use the SCM menu while some file is connected to the current ADF-GUI module, the selected ADF-GUI module will be activated showing data belonging to the same calculation. The title bar of any ADF-GUI module shows which file is connected, if any. Thus, you can easily switch between viewing the logfile, output, input, orbitals, etc, all belonging together.
When you use the SCM menu when no file is connected (the title bar just shows the name of the module), the selected ADF-GUI module will be started without file.
Selecting a menu command from the SCM menu while the control key is pressed down will start the selected module with no file. An alternative in ADFjobs is to clear the selection first (using the ESC key).
On most platforms you can tear off the SCM menu by selecting the dashed line at the top of the menu.
