The available choices are Properties Window, Applets Window, Controls Window, Bookmarks Window, or Web Templates Window. The windows are shown in Figure 22 through Figure 27.

Properties Window. The Properties window (shown in Figure 22) displays the property settings for the object definition currently highlighted in the Object List Editor.

Web Templates Window. The Web Templates window (shown in Figure 25) shows or hides the Web Template Explorer window, a Windows Explorer-like listing of Web templates. Clicking on an item in the Web Template Explorer displays the HTML source code of the Siebel Web Template (.swt) file for review or editing in the main window. The template files are shown as a parent-child window. The Web Template combo box in the Web Template window allows you the choice of displaying all Web Templates in the Explorer, the top level Web Templates only, or individual Web Templates. A template file can be edited by right-clicking in the HTML code window for that template.
