Structure Tree
The structure tree offers you an overview of your project structure with the project elements (see Project Elements).
Integration
If you schedule evaluations (see Evaluations) the system uses icons to display the Level of Severity
of your project elements. This enables you to see at a glance whether threshold values have been violated.
If you have activated the additional options to display the assignments of documents, objects, and notes (see Table View), the system uses icons to display the assignments of documents, objects, and notes to each project element. You can navigate to the corresponding tabs in the Detail
view of a project element by clicking on the respective icon.

If these symbols are filled, you are in change mode. If the symbols are not filled, you are in display mode.
You can use pushbuttons to expand or collapse the structure or parts of the structure.
You can use pushbuttons to move project elements up or down in the project structure (see Moving Project Elements Up or Down).
You can use pushbuttons to indent or outdent project tasks. Note the following:
You cannot use the outdent function for tasks to move them from below a phase to below a project definition.
If a parent element is selected, all lower-level elements will be indented or outdented in relation to that parent element. If lower-level elements are selected in addition to a parent element, this selection is ignored by the system.
Indenting or outdenting only moves selected tasks that can be moved. Other selected tasks will be ignored by the system and error messages with more information will be displayed.
You can navigate in the structure and display the data for a project element in the right-hand screen area by clicking on that project element.
You can set filters (see Setting the Filter) for project elements.
