You can use various options to display the content of BW modeling tools just how you want.
The Link with Editor button can be found in the toolbar in the Project Explorer view. It toggles the link on and off between the Project Explorer view selection and the active editor.
The Toggle Sorting button can be found in the toolbar in the Project Explorer view. It toggles between the sort modes for the InfoAreas in the Project Explorer view: These two modes are alphabetical sorting and sorting by technical name.
In the default setting, InfoAreas in the Project Explorer view are displayed according to the order of the InfoArea trees in the Data Warehousing Workbench of the BW back end system. You can use this button to switch to alphabetical sorting for the favorites and the BW repository tree in the Project Explorer view.
Semantic folders are displayed in alphabetical order. BW metadata objects are displayed in alphabetical order by technical name.
The Switch Label Display Mode button in the toolbar in the BW Modeling perspective allows you to switch between various options, to display the technical names (key) and/or descriptions (text) of InfoAreas, BW metadata objects and elements of the CompositeProvider.
