Displaying the Element Tree

Use the Element Tree to display the hierarchy of the elements in a Documaker document using a compact, tree-like view.

Element Tree

The elements are grouped into various areas, each represented by a different icon. These areas represent the different parts of the Documaker document.

You can use the Element Tree to select, search, edit and remove elements, and perform other tasks. For details, see the Element Tree Pane.

Please note:

Sections and paragraphs with the Replace section... or Replace paragraph... option selected are displayed with the icon

elements within Word text boxes are displayed under a single Text Frame node

Below the Element Tree, the properties of the selected element are displayed in a read-only view.
