Viewing objects and object properties

The following functions are provided for simplifying viewing objects in the tree
and Tabular View:
■ To expand or collapse the hierarchy under a particular object group node in
the tree:
Click on the plus sign (+) or minus sign (-) icon next to that node.
■ To display the objects in an object group listed in the object tree:
Click on the object group. All objects that belong to the selected object group
appear in Tabular View.
■ To display the objects in an object group listed in Tabular View:
Double-click on the object group. All objects that belong to the object group
appear in Tabular View.
(Double-clicking on an object that does not contain other objects (children)
displays the Properties window for the object instead of its children.)
■ To sort the objects in Tabular View by a specific property:
Click on the appropriate property column heading. To reverse the sort order,
click on the column heading again.
■ To resize a grid column:
Place the pointer over the line that divides the column headings, then press
and hold the mouse button to drag the column divider to the desired
position.
■ To resize the left pane (tree) and right pane (Tabular View):
Place the pointer over the vertical splitter, then press and hold the mouse
button to drag the splitter to the desired position.

procedures:
■ To select a single object:

■ To select multiple objects:
Hold down the Control key while selecting the objects. The objects that you
select in this way do not have to be adjacent.
■ To select a range of adjacent objects:
Select the first object, then hold down the Shift key while selecting the last
object in the range. You can also select multiple adjacent objects by pressing
