Creating a Shortcut to a Rack
A Shortcut is a link to a Rack or Rack Folder. Any changes you make to a Shortcut (such as deleting an
object it contains) are also made directly to the Rack, and vice versa. The only exception is deleting: if you
delete a Shortcut, the original Rack is not deleted.
1 Right-click a Rack to display its shortcut menu and select Create Shortcut.
2 The system generates the shortcut under the original Rack and assigns it the same name; how-
ever, the Rack icon now has a small arrow.
Yo u c a n a l s o c r e a t e a Shortcut to a Rack using the drag&drop function: Drag the Rack to the desktop. A
Shortcut is identified by the small arrow in the bottom left-hand corner of the Picon (the arrow appears
on the icon in the Detail View).
Why Use Rack Shortcuts?
Rack shortcuts are especially useful on the desktop (see note above). They allow you to keep several
Racks open at once, thus providing you with a broader, simultaneous overview of the materials available.
