Hover Menu
In the Analysis Model View pane a hover menu is also available for any object. To get this menu, move your pointer over the object and the hover menu will appear. The hover menu provides a number of the same buttons that appear in the menu bar, described above. It also provides the following buttons:
| Make this object static. | |
| Disable/ enable this object. |
Bring up a list of attributes for the object. Attributes can be selected from this list and dragged into an attribute list window for another object, so this is useful when building new objects in the model. | |
Show the list of views configured on this object. | |
Show the list of Stream Sets for this object. This brings up the Stream Set viewer. | |
Bring into the pane all objects in the model that are inputs to this object. | |
Bring into the pane all objects in the model that are outputs of this object. | |
Run the Analysis Engine on this object. All objects required to build the object selected will be run, but only these objects; so this may run Analysis on objects that are not in the pane, and Analysis may not be run on some of the objects that are in the pane. | |
Remove this object from the Analysis Model View pane. This does not delete the object from the underlying model in PhixFlow. |
