If the error list exceeds more than one screen, use the F7 (PF07) and F8 (PF08) function
keys to page backward and forward, respectively, through the error list. Press the F3
(PF03) or F4 (PF04) function key to return to the Edit Services Selection List screen.
The diagnostics are maintained in memory, and you can always return to inspect the
diagnostics in the same Edit Services session.
Testing a Panel Edit Services provides a facility for testing the appearance of a panel description file.
The testing facility enables you to view the appearance of a panel without compiling
the NCL procedure to which it belongs.
Although you can create a panel description file in any library, the file must be in one
of the following libraries for testing:
1. User panel library assigned to you in the Panel Library Subvol field in your user
ID definition record
2. Customized panel library defined in PARAM PNLCUSTSRC
3. Distribution panel library defined in PARAM PNLDISTSRC
Edit Services always searches for the panel description file in those libraries in the
order given above, regardless of which file you actually select for testing (the specified
subvolume is irrelevant). For example, if two files of the same name exist in both your
user panel library and the customized panel library, and you select the file in the latter
for testing, Edit Services tests the file in your user panel library instead.
