Inspector palette  


 

 

The properties of the Structure editor objects (tables, fields and relations) can be viewed and modified via the Inspector palette:

This palette appears when you double-click on an object. When it is displayed, its contents are updated dynamically depending on the objects selected. 

The Inspector displays the general properties of the Structure editor window when you click in an empty area of the window (see “Customizing the background of the editor window” in the Structure editor).

The different areas of the palette can be expanded/collapsed. You can click on the adjacent triangles to display or hide the corresponding information:

The following shortcuts can be used:

  • Shift+click on the title bar of a collapsed panel expands that panel and collapses all the others.
  • Alt (Windows) or Option (Mac OS) + click on the title bar of a collapsed panel expands all the panels.
  • Alt (Windows) or Option (Mac OS) + click on the title bar of an expanded panel collapses all the panels.

The position of the palette and the expanded/collapsed states of its panels are saved.
