1. Backup the file <drive Letter>:\inetpub\SolarWinds\Orion\NetPerfMon\OrionMessages.aspx to <drive Letter>:\inetpub\SolarWinds\Orion\NetPerfMon\OrionMessages.aspx.orig
2. Copy this file to <drive Letter>:\inetpub\SolarWinds\Orion\NetPerfMon\OrionMessages.aspx

Modifications

• Moved the Search Bar to the left
• Moved Show Acknowledged outside the Hide/Show div
• Moved Time Period outside the Hide/Show div
• Moved the Number of displayed messages outside the Hide/Show div
• Reformated the Filter Devices section
• Use the background color of the icon cell for the entire row.
• Show/Hide now shows/hides the Filter form without doing a full page form submit. - 7/20/2016 updated.

This gives a much better user interface that is easier to navigate without having to hit the Hide/Show which does a form submit.

Possible Enhancement

• Make the Show/Hide run as javascript to show or hide using jquery and css styles.
