Figure 4 GUI Window Components
Menu bar Provides pull-down menus for File, View, Options, Actions, and Help. Each
choice has additional submenus for more activities. Items in the menus
may or may not appear, depending on whether selections are highlighted
or not. Some actions may also be grayed out to show they are not
available for a specific item.
Message area Provides messages and system information.
View/selections Describes the current software view and the number of items selected in
the object list.
Columns Headings for columns of information in the object list.
Object list Lists software selections, bundles, products, targets, or other information
regarding selections, analysis and details.
Opening and closing items in the object list
The Software Selection window object list is hierarchical: you can open each object in the list and
show its contents. Objects in the list that contain other objects that can be opened have an arrow
(→) after the name.
• To open a subproduct, double click on it, or highlight the name and then select Actions→Open
Item. For example, to see the subproducts in the SD-DATABASE product, open SD-DATABASE
by double clicking on it. The object list then displays the subproducts for SD-DATABASE.
• To close an object and return to the previous list, double click on the first item in the list (..(go
up)) or highlight the item and select Actions→Close Level.
When a product is opened, subproducts and filesets may appear in the same list. Only products
are listed together at the product level.
Filesets are the lowest level of hierarchical objects managed by SD-UX. You can not view the
contents of files, but you can view the list of files in each fileset and information about each file.
