Alternatively, one can use the context menu of a
Data Browser config file or of selected PVs to open
a Data Browser instance in view mode.
This is a read-only mode with limited functionality.
Only changes supported by the
Button Bar
of the plot window are accessible,
and even that Button bar is initially
hidden, and needs to be opened via the context menu
of the view mode window.
The only advantage:
View windows offer some added positioning options,
including a "detached" mode.
