1.1 Accessing CLS
Acessing CLS
CLS is designed as an API for other mod developers to use. However, it can be used in stand alone mode and can be accessed while in Flight and in the VAB/SPH. It is accessed via either the Stock Toolbar (this is the default) or via Blizzy's Toolbar Mod (optional). An icon with the letters "CLS" will be visible on the toolbar. Clicking on this icon will expose the CLS information window.
Blizzy Toolbar Support
CLS now supports using Blizzy's Toolbar mod. IMHO, it is far superior to the stock toolbar in every way. To use Blizzy's toolbar instead of the Stock toolbar, Select the toggle near the top of the CLS window called. "Use Blizzy's Toolbar instead of Stock". CLS will remember this setting (see CLS Config File below), so you will not have to select it again, unless you deselect it some time in the future.
Selecting this option will immediately make the stock button disappear. If you have previously set CLS up in Blizzy's toolbar the icon will appear immediately as well. However, if you have not previously set up Blizzy's Toolbar to display CLS, then you will have to add the CLS Icon to it.
Setting up CLS for first time Use with Blizzy's Toolbar
The Blizzy Toolbar is highly configurable, so it does not automatically display a mod icon (button) unless you tell it you want to see it. This only has to be performed once per scene.
To the right of Blizzy's toolbar is an arrow pointing down. Click on it and select Configure Visible Buttons:
A selection window will appear with a list of all possible mod icons that could be added to Blizzy's toolbar in that particular Scene.
Select CLS from the list, click the close button in the lower right of the visiblity window and you are done. Blizzy's toolbar will remember this setting for this Scene. You will need to perform these steps in both the Flight scene and in the VAB/SPH scene for first time use only. After that, the buttons will appear the moment you select the Blizzy's toolbar from the CLS window.
CLS Config File
CLS contains a configuration file: cls_settings.dat, which is located in the GameData folder. it is a JSON style file. It has only one setting, "enableBlizzyToolbar", which is False by default.

enableBlizzyToolbar = True
