View Tab

The View tab contains commands related to configuring the layout of the application's interface, such displaying the Project Manager, My Portal, tabbed windows and other features.

Refresh

  Refresh refreshes the display in the Project window. If multiple users are accessing the same project simultaneously, this command will refresh your screen with any changes made by other users. When you make a change to the project, your window will be refreshed automatically.

Project Manager

  Show Project Manager brings the Project Manager into focus. If the Project Manager is unpinned and hidden, choosing this command will display it.

  Dock Project Manager opens a submenu that allows you to choose the desired position for the Project Manager: Dock Left, Dock Right, Dock Top, Dock Bottom or Floating.

My Portal

  Show My Portal opens the My Portal window, which provides information relevant to your work within the database, such as messages from other users, recommended actions for a particular project item, status of other users logged in to the database and other information.  

  Tile My Portal tiles the Messages, Actions, Users, and Reliability Web Notes pages so they are all displayed simultaneously within the My Portal panel.

  Dock My Portal opens a submenu that allows you to choose the desired position for the Portal: Dock Left, Dock Right, Dock Top, Dock Bottom or Floating.

Workspace Layout

  Change Orientation toggles between the two possible orientations for the System panel and the Analysis panel. These panels can be side-by-side or one on top of the other.

  Hide System Panel hides the System panel in the Project window. When you want to show the panel again, choose View > Workspace Layout > Split Panels.

  Hide Analysis Panel hides the Analysis panel in the Project window. When you want to show the panel again, choose View > Workspace Layout > Split Panels.

  Split Panels splits the Project window into two equal panels, with 50% of the available space used for the System panel and 50% of the available space used for the Analysis panel.

Expand/Collapse

  Expand Tree expands the hierarchy to show all items/records. This command is available when the System panel or when the F-F-E-C hierarchy view in the Analysis panel has focus.

  Collapse Tree collapses the hierarchy to hide all items/records except the top level. This command is available when the System panel or when the  F-F-E-C hierarchy view in the Analysis panel has focus.

   Expand Node expands the hierarchy to show all items/records in the existing branch. This command is available when the System panel or the  F-F-E-C hierarchy view in the Analysis panel has focus.

   Collapse Node collapses the hierarchy to hide all items/records except the top level item/record in the branch. This command is available when the System panel or when the  F-F-E-C hierarchy view in the Analysis panel has focus.

  Collapse to Level collapses the hierarchy to the level of the record that is currently selected. This command is available when the System panel or when the  F-F-E-C hierarchy view in the Analysis panel has focus. For example, if you have selected an effect in the  F-F-E-C hierarchy view and choose this command, all branches in the  F-F-E-C hierarchy view will be collapsed to the effect level and the nodes for causes will be hidden.

Zoom

  Zoom Normal sets the degree of magnification to 100%.

  Zoom In increases the degree of magnification.

  Zoom Out decreases the degree of magnification.

  Custom Zoom allows you to specify the degree of magnification.

Window

  Use Tabbed MDI maximizes the windows to fill the full space available in the MDI and shows a tab for each open window. If you clear this command, the open windows will be displayed as separate windows that can be resized and moved around within the MDI.

  Window

1. • Cascade cascades all open project windows inside the MDI.

   • Tile Horizontally horizontally tiles all open project windows inside the MDI.

   • Tile Vertically vertically tiles all open project windows inside the MDI.

   • The Windows drop-down list displays a list of all project windows currently open inside the MDI. You can make any of the open project windows active by clicking its name in this Ribbon.

   • Close All Windows closes all open project windows inside the MDI, leaving only the Project Manager and My Portal panels open (if they were selected to be shown).
