can easily revisit objects previously displayed in the Primary pane.

1. Click Open navigation bar in the System Manager header.

a. Click or press CTRL+H to view the selection history. As a result, a drop-

down list of your 20 most recent Primary-pane selections (in descending order

from newest to oldest) displays. The one currently displayed in the Primary

pane is highlighted with a checkmark .

b. Click the name of the selection in the list that you want to revisit.

 The selection displays again in the Primary pane. The Contextual pane,

System Browser, and the Navigation bar also refresh accordingly.

3. To move sequentially through the history list of recent selections:

– Click the Back or Forward buttons, or use the ALT+Left or

ALT+Right keyboard shortcuts.
