group.
Selection and the Pull-Right Menu
The pull-right menu and its options interacts with selection in various
ways:
■ If you launch the pull-right menu for an item that is not currently
selected, then this will clear any current selection and select the item,
whose pull-right menu you launched.
■ If you launch the pull-right menu for an item that is currently selected,
then the menu will list all of the options that can be applied to all of
the items that are currently selected. If you then select an option that
can be applied to more than one of the selected items then the option
will be applied to all of those items. Note that this also applies to
menu options in the menu bar.
■ If you right-click on an NCP then one of the options is to select all of
the phones related to that NCP. Selecting this option will clear any
current selection and select all of the phones related to that NCP.
Navigation 3Com Network Director provides various navigation facilities to enable
you to focus in on particular areas of your network topology that are of
interest to you. These facilities include panning, zooming in and out of
the map and, when you are viewing the devices in your network grouped
by subnet, navigating between submaps and the top-level map.
Panning
Panning around the map is achieved by using the two scroll bars located
at the right-hand side and lower map area. The scroll bar at the
right-hand side controls vertical panning and the lower scroll bar controls
horizontal panning.
There are three zoom actions that may be performed in the map:
Zoom in
Zooms in on the map. If there are one or more items selected in the
currently viewed submap then 3Com Network Director centers these
items on the page and zooms in. If there are no items selected in the
currently viewed submap, then 3Com Network Director zooms in directly
towards the center of the currently displayed area of the submap.
