Displaying Object Types in the Object Explorer


This topic describes how to display object types in the Object Explorer.

To display object types in the Object Explorer

  1. Log in to Siebel Tools.
  2. Click the View menu, and then click Options.
  3. Click the Object Explorer tab.

    NOTE:  In Web Tools, click the pencil icon from the menu before the Object Explorer tabs.

  4. Scroll down through the Object Explorer Hierarchy window until you locate the object type you want to display.
  5. Make sure the object type you want to display includes a check mark, and use the values from the following table.
    Check Box State - Web Tools
    Check Box State - Siebel Tools
    Description

    Display this object and all child objects of this object.

    Hide this object and all child objects of this object.

    Display this object. Display some child objects and hide some child objects.

    If you add a check mark to a top-level object type, such as Applet, then Web Tools and Siebel Tools add a check mark to all child objects that the Applet contains. You can expand the parent tree to display only some child objects. A top-level object type is an object type at the start of the object hierarchy. The object types that the Object Explorer shows immediately after you install Siebel Tools or Web Tools, but before you expand any object types in the Object Explorer, are top-level object types.

  6. (Optional) To restore the Object Explorer to the settings when you first install Siebel Tools or Web Tools, click Default.

    NOTE:  In Web Tools, click the Refresh icon to restore the default settings.

  7. Click OK.

    NOTE:  In Web Tools, click Save.
