Navigating the Data
Functions in Explorer
As the “main window” in addVANTAGE Pro, the Explorer offers many features. In
addition to the usual expand/collapse of branches by clicking the plus (
+) or
minus (
-) sign, you can rename a node just by clicking the name twice.
You can also right-click a node and see a variety of options on the context menu,
depending on the node type and the permissions your user ID has. Figure 5, for
example, shows the context menu for a tag for someone with admin
permissions.
