1. Select objects in a group.
2. Press CTRL+U.
Expand and Collapse Categories and Groups in the Configuration Components Pane
You can expand and collapse the Processes, Global Variables, Documents and Printers Queues categories, and groups, in the
Configuration Components Pane.
To expand or collapse categories or groups in the Configuration Components Pane:
l Click the expand/collapse button to the left of the item.
Delete Objects and Groups from the Configuration Components Pane
Delete objects and groups from the Configuration Components Pane.
To delete a process, document, or printer queue:
l Click a process, document, or printer queue, then press DELETE.
In the case of processes and printer queues, the object is deleted. If there is only one process in the configuration, you cannot
delete it; there must be at least one process in the configuration. If you delete the last configured process, a process with two
unknown tasks remains.
In the case of documents, you are first prompted to confirm the deletion. You can turn off this prompt in the Notification Mes-
sages User Options.
To delete a group of processes, documents, or printer queues:
l Click a process group, documents group, or printer queue group, then press DELETE.
In the case of process groups and printer queue groups, the group and all its members are deleted. In the case of documents,
you are first prompted to confirm the deletion of each member of the group. You can turn off this prompt in the Notification
Messages User Options.
The Process Area
The Process area, which is always available and visible, holds all the tasks, branches, conditions and comments that make up
the selected process. The Process area is built like an invisible grid divided by rows (horizontal)and columns (vertical). When
adding a new Action Task, a new row is added. When adding a Branch or Condition, a new column appears (unless there is
already a column at that level).
The first task of any process, also called the initial input task, always appears in the first box in the upper left corner. When
you create a new process, this first task is always followed by the default output task in the following box.
Zoom In or Out within Process Area
You can do a zoom out in the PlanetPress Suite Process area to see more tasks at the same time. In zoom out mode, you can
perform the exact same functions as in normal view mode.
To zoom in or out on the PlanetPress Suite Process Area:
