If your operation has an active Avalanche Control or Run List Extension subscription you can access configuration options on this page. See [[Configuring the quick observation entry for avalanche control]] for more details on how to configure the avalanche control extension. See [[Specifying the status ratings for the run list module]] for more details on how to specify the status ratings for the run list extension.

Attachments open in a new tab (window). Your choice is whether attachments are opened in a single additional tab and each subsequent attachment overwrites the current attachment, or whether each attachment opens in a completely new tab. Attachments are most commonly photos that selected to view from reports, including history reports whilst using the run list or avalanche control workflow steps. So if you want to be able to view multiple photos by flipping between different tabs at the same time you should choose {{ButtonGrey|On}}.

InfoEx offers flexibility by allowing each operation a choice over how attachments are opened. This page describes how an Operation Administrator can specify the preference for the operation.

Attachments open in a new tab (window). Your choice is whether attachments are opened in a single additional tab and each subsequent attachment overwrites the current attachment, or whether each attachment opens in a completely new tab. Attachments are most commonly photos that selected to view from reports, including history reports whilst using the run list or avalanche control workflow steps. So if you want to be able to view multiple photos by flipping between different tabs at the same time you should choose On.
