Tutorial 2: Working with Data 29
The effect of a double click on any item depends on the state of the map. If in shadow
cursor mode the map will switch to either group or view selection mode and select the
item that was clicked upon. If the map is already in either of these selection modes a
double click has the same effect as hitting the
button or using the activate
shortcut key (default <Enter> key).
The group on the top layer (closest to the front) is listed first, followed by the next layer
behind it, followed by the rest of the layers to the bottom layer at the end of the list. It is
possible to control the render order in the tree by using the Drag n Drop technology. The
Drag n Drop capability enables you to move map groups up and down within Views and
also to move Views relative to each other.
RENDERING OPTIONS
Check the Render images first box to render (draw) the images groups first.
Check the Auto-Redraw box to automatically redraw the map when a change is
made to it.
Click the Redraw button to redraw the map when changes are made to the
groups in the View/Group Manager and the Auto-Redraw option is off.
The View/Group Manager Tool is a “modeless” dialog, which means it can remain open
while you work on your map. It can be toggled on or off using the “M” hot key and can
even be docked on the side of your screen or at the top with the toolbars.
