l
Move to the top to move the item to the top of the category or group. If the item is already
the top object in the category or group, this command has no effect.
l
Move to the bottom to move the item to the bottom of the category or group. If the item is
already the bottom object in the category or group, this command has no effect.
To alphabetically reorder objects in the Configuration Components pane:
l
Click either a category (Processes, Global Variables, Connect Resources, PPD/PSM Docu-
ments, or Printer Queues) or a group
l
In the PReS Workflow 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. Each group may contain subgroups.
Items or processes, and groups, can only be grouped within their own category. Thus you can only
group processes with other processes, resource documents with other resource documents, and
printer queues with other printer queues. In the resource documents category, you can only group doc-
uments 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 doc-
uments.
You can also use groups to quickly assign multiple PlanetPress Design 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.
Tip: Groups can be copied and moved using the Clipboard and Drag & Drop; see "Moving and
copying configuration components" on page694.
Grouping objects
To add a group in the Configuration Components pane:
l
Select one or more processes and/or groups in the same group and choose View > Group.
l
Right-click one or more selected processes and/or groups and select Group from the contextual
menu.
l
Select one or more processes or groups in the same group and press CTRL+G.
The selected items will be moved to a new (sub)group.
When you've clicked on a group, all processes therein are moved to a new subgroup.
