7.6.2 View menu
Use this menu to select how and what the Explorer window shows. Related commands are grouped together: A
checkmark before the menu item enables this item.
Object Tree: Checkmark set = object tree is shown; no checkmark = object tree is hidden
Left: Object tree position, only active if object tree is displayed. Results in a vertically split window: Object tree on
left, workspace on right.
Top: Object tree position, only active if object tree is displayed. Results in a horizontally split window: Object tree on top,
workspace on bottom.
Left/top are toggle commands if “Show object tree” has been enabled.
Refresh: Redraws the Explorer window. Corresponds with the button in the tool bar with the same name. Use this function, for
example, to apply changes in the ServerData\viewersources.ini or in the ApolloExplorer.ini file to the object tree.
Sorted by Groups: Sorts the objects of the object tree by groups as defined in the configuration plan. A group
always starts with the same name.
Sorting by Types: Sorts the objects of the object tree by types (classes), i.e., according to sources, devices, desk-
top servers, viewers, etc. as defined in the configuration plan.
View sorted by groups or types are toggle commands.
Full Names: Objects are displayed with the full name used to define the objects in the control room bus. Only the
last characters (after the last dot/extensions) are displayed as names if this option is disabled.
