Note
When you select a group (folder), no information is displayed in the Object Inspector, because what
is really selected is the group heading and not the items included in the group.
The Plug-in Bar
PReS Workflow offers a constantly increasing number of plugins, while always allowing third
party plugins to be installed and set up to be used by PReS Workflow. The PReS Workflow
Plug-in Bar lists all plugins available in PReS Workflow, and is divided into categories, which
users can customize at will.
Most of the PReS plugins are installed by default, but other plugins may be added. Because the
plugins are always expected to execute some sort of task, they are always referred to, in this
documentation, as tasks, except in the specific case of importing a new plugin or customizing
the Plug-in Bar. See also: "About Tasks" on page197.
Categories
The default categories list plugins according to what type of task they achieve. When first
starting your PReS Workflow program, the following categories are used:
l Inputs, see "Input tasks" on page205
l Actions, see "Action Tasks" on page251
l Data splitters, see "Data Splitters" on page321
l Process logic, see "Process Logic tasks" on page342
l Connectors, see "Connector Tasks" on page359
l PlanetPress Capture, see "PlanetPress Capture" on page524
l Metadata Related, see "Metadata Tasks" on page418
l OL Connect, see "OL Connect tasks" on page450
