Navigator

A navigator is displayed on the left of the work window, showing the data of the opened file (s) in a tree structure. By clicking the Opening Directory symbol, you can expand the entries of a branch and close them with Opening List . Double-clicking an entry has the same effect.

When you "grab" the navigator with the pointer in its title bar, you can move it into the workspace. To dock it, double-click the title bar or move the navigator to the window frame.

Info

An object that is selected in the navigator is also selected in the work window. This allows you to quickly locate and edit objects.

At the bottom of the navigator, there are two tabs (or three after the calculation). They allow you to switch between the navigators 'Data ',' Display 'and' Results '.

Navigator - Data

The Navigator - Data manages the model data, the internal forces as well as the calculated results. Incorrectly defined objects are displayed in red, unused objects are displayed in blue.

Info

With a double-click on an entry, you open the edit dialog box of the object. When you right-click an entry, a shortcut menu appears with useful functions for creating or modifying the object (see image Shortcutmenuforpoints ).

Navigator - Display

The Navigator - Display controls the graphical display of objects in the work window. If you clear the check box of an entry, the object or attribute is hidden.

Navigator - Results

The Navigator - Results controls the results that are displayed in the graphic.
