The list window
Once you have selected a type of list, a list window opens.
(1) Title bar
The list header shows the name of the list in squared brackets. You can edit the name of the list (Editing window headers of lists).
(2) Menu bar
Once a list window is open, the List (<Network object type>) menu appears on the far right on the menu bar.
(3) Column header
As column header, either the short or the long name of the attributes is displayed, according to the setting. Any selected relations are put in front, for example Min:InLinks\FromNodeNo. A tooltip provides further information about the displayed attribute if you point at a column header.
Here you can edit the current attribute selection (Viewing/Hiding attributes), adjust the layout (Adjusting the list layout) or sort a list (Sorting a list).
You can change the height of the column header by dragging it with the mouse. Long attribute names can thus be displayed in full below each other.
(4) Data
Here you can view the values of the selected attributes. The shortcut menu offers various editing options.
Note: The first column of a list indicates the number of the row. |
