1. Click an object or group.
2. In the PlanetPress Suite Ribbon, go to the View tab then click Order in the Arrange group, then select one of the fol-
lowing:
l Up One Level to move the item one level up in the hierarchy. If the item is already the top object in the cat-
egory, or within a group, this command has no effect.
l Down One Level to move the item one level down in the hierarchy. If the item is already the bottom object in
the category, or within a group, this command has no effect.
l To Top Level to move the item to the top level in the hierarchy. This moves the item to the top of the category
or to the top of the group. If the item is already the top object in the category, or within a group, this command
has no effect.
l To Bottom Level to move the item to the bottom level in the hierarchy.
To alphabetically reorder objects in the Configuration Components Pane:
l Click the either a category (Processes, Global Variables, Documents, or Printer Queues) or a group
l In the PlanetPress Suite Ribbon, go to the View tab.
l In the Arrange group, select Sort by Name.
Grouping Configuration Components
Groups help you organize processes, documents, and printer queues. For example, you may create the Invoices, Checks and
Reports groups in the Processes section and associate individual processes with each one of these groups.
You group items only within their own category. Thus you can only group processes with other processes, documents with
other documents, and printer queues with other printer queues. In the documents category, you can only group documents
with others of the same version and type. For example, you can only group documents from PlanetPress Design (files with a
PTK extension) with other PTK files, not with printer-resident documents.
You can also use groups to quickly assign multiple documents to multiple printer queues. By dragging a group of documents to
a printer queue, you assign all the documents in the group to that queue.
To add a group in the Configuration Components Pane:
l In the Configuration Components Pane, click a category and choose View | Arrange | Group.
A new group is added at the end of the category.
To add objects to an existing group:
l Drag-and-drop the objects onto the group.
The objects are added as the last objects in the group.
To remove objects from a group:
l Drag-and-drop the objects out of the group.
The objects are removed from the group. If the group becomes empty, you are prompted to confirm the deletion of the
group.
To add selected objects to a new group:
1. Select multiple objects that are not part of a group
2. Press CTRL+G. A new group is added and the selected items are moved to that new group.
To ungroup selected objects:
