Operations with numeric tree

Below is the list of operations supported by the numeric tree browser. The operations can be performed by selecting some item in the browser and choosing the corresponding action from the context menu (right-clicking mouse button), from the Actions menu, or from the browser tool bar. Every operation below lists where corresponding action can be found.

Operations in the numeric tree are essentially the same as those in the numeric list browser with some slight differences due to different context.

Display (Ctrl+Y)
Pops up a window displaying the details for the object selected in the right pane. Displays whatever is produced by the print() method. Because the items in the right pane are really link names, the information displayed will be taken from the objects pointed by the links. The action is accessible from the context menu in the right pane and is also a default action (double-clicking) for the leaf objects.
Open (Ctrl+O)
Opens a map selected in the right pane. This action is available for the numeric maps only and is a default action for them. Also accessible from the context menu in the right pane.
Explore (Ctrl+E)
Opens new numeric tree browser window. The map selected in the right pane will become a root object for the new browser. This action is available for the objects which are maps. Accessible from the right context menu, tool bar, and Actions menu.
Expand all (Ctrl+X)
Expands the object selected in the left pane showing all its subobjects and subsubobjects, etc.
