Setup Sheet Layouts
A Setup Sheet Layout is a customizable template for organizing and displaying vehicle setup information. It visually represents your specifications.
What Is a Setup Sheet Layout?
A Setup Sheet Layout in ONE RACEHUB is a customizable template that determines how your vehicle setup information is organized and displayed. Think of it as the visual representation of your specifications, arranged in a way that makes sense for your team's workflow.
Accessing Setup Sheet Layouts
- Navigate to Templates in the main menu
- Select Setup Sheet Layouts
- Click Add New Layout
Setup Sheet Types
When creating a new Setup Sheet Layout, you'll need to select its type:
- Full Setup Sheet: Contains all possible adjustments and settings for your vehicle
- Mini Setup Sheet: Shows only essential adjustments that are frequently changed (visible in your RunSheet)
- Simulation Sheet: Specifically formatted for simulation purposes
Designing Your Layout
Setup sheets are typically designed to visually represent your vehicle from a top-down perspective:
- Corner blocks for wheel-specific settings
- Axle blocks for settings that apply to both left and right sides
- Central blocks for vehicle-wide settings
- Comment boxes for notes and additional information
Creating Blocks
- Click Add Block in the Setup Sheet Layout Editor
- Drag the bottom-right corner to resize the block
- Position the block in the desired location
Customizing Blocks
For each block you create:
- Set background and border colors
- Multiple tabs can be created if needed
- Name the box (or enter a space " " to hide the header)
- Add groups within the box
- Groups appear as sections with titles on the left
- You have the options to customize the groups themselves in terms of Backround and Outline color, similar to the Block level
Adding Fields
Within each group, you can add multiple fields:
- Click Add Field
- Adjust the number of rows and columns in each row
- Choose the field type:
- Label: Static text
- Input Field: Value that can be entered by users
- Read Only: Value that cannot be modified
- Optional: Here you can also edit the appearance of the field with setting custom backround and ourline colors
Configuring Input Fields
For each input field:
- Set decimal places and alignment
- Select the Field Key from your chassis specifications
- This connects the field to parameters inside the database
- The available options come from different areas around your car: Calculations,Specification,Parts, Assemblies, Tracking Items
Tip: You can call multiple properties of your part or specification.
Example Spring:
a) Call the name of the physical part
b) Call the stiffness parameter directly
Custom Fields
For values not defined in your chassis specifications, you can create custom fields:
- In the Field Key dropdown, select the option to enter text instead of choosing an item (click into top selection field).
- Enter a key starting with "custom." (e.g., "custom.brake.front.mastercylinder")
- This creates a free-form text field that will still be saved with your setup.
Example: You might use custom fields as a shortcut to not define additional items in your specification. The naming of the custom field is free and can be defined by the user. It is recommended to follow the FieldKey naming convention as close as possible for best usability.
Tabs and Multi-page Design
For complex vehicles with many settings:
- Create multiple tabs within blocks
- Organize related settings together
Linking to Specifications
Once your Setup Sheet Layout is complete:
- Return to your Chassis Specifications
- Go to the "Setup Sheet Style" menu at the top
- Add your newly created Setup Sheet Layout(s)
This associates the layout with your chassis, making it available when you create setups for that chassis.
Best Practices
- Consistency: Maintain a consistent layout across different vehicle types
- Color Coding: Use colors to differentiate between different types of settings
- Grouping: Keep related settings together
- Mini Sheets: Keep your Mini Setup Sheet focused on only the most frequently changed settings
- Naming: Use clear, concise names for blocks and fields
