Setup Selector

The Setup Selector is your hub for managing and switching between different saved setups. Think of it as your setup library - a quick way to browse, search, and load any configuration you've previously saved.

Always visible at the top of the table area, the command bar shows:

  • Selection count - When items are selected (e.g., "2 selected")

Tag Management

Tags help you organize and categorize your setups for easy retrieval.

Adding Tags

  1. Click the tag cell next to a setup in the table
  2. Type the tag name (e.g., "race", "qualifying", "wet weather")
  3. Press Enter to save

Adding Multiple Tags

Separate tag names with commas to add several at once:

race, high-downforce, silverstone

Using Tags

Tags make it easy to:

  • Group similar setups together
  • Find setups for specific conditions
  • Filter by track, weather, or tyre compound
  • Organize team workflows

Tag Naming

Use consistent tag names across your team for better organization. Consider creating a tagging convention like "track-name", "condition", "purpose".
