Element browser is a window with a
subset of elements stored in the currently opened collection.
When you open a browser it aligns
itself to the left along with the element
window on the right. This
way you can preview individual elements as the selection in the
browser changes (only if synchronization button is down).
A browser window is made of the
following components:
- Caption - name of the browser
and the number of elements displayed in the browser
- Toolbar - buttons providing access to the
most often used browser operations
- Element list - list of
elements included in the browser with the following
columns:
- Sel - click
on this field to select the current entry (e.g.
to include it in a newly generated element subset). The selected entry is
marked with the plus sign in the Sel column.
