This documentation section explains what are different items displayed by GCstar.

Here is GCstar main window (of course, there won’t be so many information the first time it is launched).

On the left side, there is the collection content. Clicking on an item will display its information on the right side. Double-clicking on it will open a window containing also its information.

Right side of the window may differ according to the current collection. It depends also on some user settings. Previous example was for tab display of a movie collection.

In any case, this will contain all the information attached to a collection item.

On top of the window, there is a toolbar. It can be used to have a quicker access to current features.

From left to right, there are buttons used for:

• Add a new movie
• Save current collection
• Change preferences
• Find movies
• Display all movies
• Show a random movie
• Launch associated file
• Change field used to group items

Other sections in this documentation contain more information about these actions.

The Play button is only present for some collections. For movies, it will play the associated video if any, for video games, it will launch the executable,...

It is possible to configure which fields are displayed in right part. This is achieved using Displayed Information in Settings menu. It opens this window:

All fields that could be displayed are grouped by tabs. If associated check box is checked in, corresponding field will be shown. It will be hidden if it is not.

This only acts upon display. Information that are not shown are always stored in collection.
