Object Editor 

To display or edit an object, open it in the object editor.

If you have opened multiple objects, the different object editors are displayed as tab pages. The tab page index (with the names of the objects and icons for the object types) is positioned at the bottom of the window.

You can call the object editor for an object as follows:

●      Create a new object

●      Open an object in the navigation area by double-clicking

●      Drag an object from the navigation bar to the work area of the application window by using drag and drop

●      Double-click an object reference (forward navigation)

All object editors have the same basic structure for all object types (illustrated in graphic below).

The header displays the following information about the object.
