Object structure window
In the structure area, objects can be displayed as part of the tree or separately in the shape of a table in the object detail window. Via the configuration files, administrators can define which objects are shown at which places. Fig. 6 shows an object structure window and presents the following advantages of such a view:
-
If an object has a large number of child objects, e. g. a graphic directory that contains several dozens of graphics, the tree soon becomes confusing. The display of child objects in the object structure window improves the ergonomics of the editor.
-
As opposed to the tree view, the object structure window offers the option to display additional information on objects, e. g. a minimised preview window of graphics.
The object whose descendants are currently displayed in the object structure window are always displayed in bold.
The object structure window is descriped more detailed in the section editor customizing of that manual.
