The repository browser lists all the items in your PhixFlow instance. The Full Repository lists everything in the repository from all applications and packages, including anything which isn't inside an application or package. A user will only be able to see items which they have permission to view.
The repository explorer can be accessed by clicking the icon 
in the bottom right hand corner in design mode. The repository browser may also be opened from some forms to view a subsection of items which may be dragged onto the form e.g. for adding a task plan rule to an action.
Objects in the repository browser are organised by type; click the arrow next to the collection header to see all of the objects of that type. Objects in packages are not organised under collection headers by default, but this option can be enabled by right clicking on the package name and choosing 'Show the collection headers'.
In the repository browser right click on an item to view the menu for that object. Right click on a collection header to add a new item or show a detailed list of the items. Right clicking on individual objects will provide a menu of options depending on the item type.
If you hover over an object in the repository browser, and the object has a description, then the description will be displayed as a floating tool tip.
All objects can be permanently deleted from the repository browser.
Finding Repository Items
In the repository browser, most items are sorted by type. For example all the analysis models are stored together in alphabetical order. To find an item of a specific type, expand the folder. You can then either scroll down the list or, to help you find items in long lists, use the search box. When you type into the search box, PhixFlow filters the list to show only the names that contain the string you have typed so far.
Some types of item "belong" to another item. For example you can expand any stream to see that it can potentially have actions, stream item actions, attributes, views, filters, sort orders and inputs. You can also search within these sub-categories.
Applications and Packages
To move an object to another application or package, drag-and-drop it on the new application or package in the repository browser. Each object can only be part of one application or package so when objects are moved into a package they are no longer included in the application. See Applications and Packages for more details.
To remove an item from an application or package, right-click on it in the repository browser and select Remove from Container. This will remove the item from the application or package, but it will still appear in the full repository.
To add stream attributes to application components, such as layouts or forms, you can simply drag in the attribute. As you are dragging, PhixFlow changes the cursor to show where you can drop the attribute:
you can drop the attribute
you cannot drop the attribute.
Streams
Multiple items can be selected using Ctrl+click to select individual items or Shift+click to select a range. To rollback multiple streams at the same time, select the streams required and then right click on a selected stream. The menu option 'Rollback Selected Objects' will be available to rollback all of the selected streams.
Finding Out Where Repository Items Are Used
To find where an item is used, right-click on its name to display the context menu and click Show where used. This will find displays a list of all the models or applications that use the item in the PhixFlow instance. The search results do not include places where the object is referred to by name, for example in expressions. Items that you have permission to view are listed. If you do not have permission to view an item, PhixFlow displays an icon. Use
Use Show where used before you delete an item, to check if it is still used by something else.
To see context menu options for an item in the list, right-click the item name. The options available to you in the context menu depend on the type of object and your permissions, but may include options to:
- Display
- Edit
- Permanently delete
- Remove from container
- Find in explorer (show the item in the repository browser).
