ObjectManager - Contents: Edit contained objects.

Description

This view displays the contained objects and allows you to add, delete and change them.

Each contained object is displayed on a line and is identified by an icon, an id and a title in parenthesis. Additionally, the size (if applicable) and the date during which the object was last modified are displayed. You can manage an object by clicking on its identifying link.

Sorting

You can sort contained objects by type, name (id), size, or modification date. To do so, click on the appropriate column heading. Clicking a second time on any column heading will reverse the sort on that field.

Versions

If you are currently working in a version there will be a notice at the top of the list of objects indicating this.

If there is a red diamond following the name of an object this indicates that the object has been modified in the version you are currently working in. If there is a red diamond with a lock after an object, this indicates the the object has been modified in another version.
