Informational Screens
A group of informational screens is provided as part of the Pathmaker full screen
interface. Most of these screens list the names of Pathmaker objects, such as
requesters, services, and servers found on the same system and created with the same
release of the Pathmaker product as the current project. The name of an object on a list
screen can be selected by using the cursor and the F10 function key. The selected
name is then returned to the previous screen.
The informational screens available through the Pathmaker full screen interface are
summarized in Table 3-1.
