Call: Menu bar: “Visualization”
Requirement: A visualization is open in the editor.
Tab 'Visualization Element List'
This view contains a list of the visualization elements in the open visualization. Grouped elements are displayed in a tree structure and have their own order within the group (other hierarchy level).
The current selection in the list is always synchronized with the selection in the main window of the editor.
The order in the element list from top to bottom describes the order of the elements on the display layers of the visualization from back to front. When you insert elements consecutively, they are arranged starting from the back (position 0) on one layer forward. When you use the commands in the menu “Visualization Order” to move an element from front to back in the editor window, the element list refreshes accordingly.
“Type” |
Element type and symbol, as used in the “Visualization Toolbox” view, as well as the element number that specifies the display layer. |
“X”, |
Position of the upper left corner of the element (0,0 = upper left corner of the visualization area). |
“Y” |
|
“Width” |
Dimensions of the element (in pixels). |
“Height” |
|
“ID” |
Internally assigned element identifier |
“Name” |
Element name as defined in “Properties Element name”. |
“Access Rights” |
The lock symbol |
“Tab Order” |
Position within the order in which you can jump from element to element in the editor by means of the tab key when the default keyboard usage is activated. The activation is done in the visualization manager, on the settings tab. Note that elements within a group or group box have their own order (different hierarchy level). The tab order initially corresponds to the order in which the elements are arranged on the layers from back to front (“Type” above). To change the position in the order for an element, you can specify a different number directly in the table field. You can also use the “Move to Position” context menu command to open a dialog for specifying a new position. Bold fonts indicate changed position specifications. By removing the displayed value, you exclude the element from the selection using tab or arrow keys. You can use the “Reset to Default” context menu command to reset a changed position to the original position. This can be done simultaneously for a multiselection of elements when they do not belong to different hierarchy levels (groupings). |
