# Toolbar and Right-Click Menu On the Input Section

The Scope Variables panel and the Function panel have several buttons for performing various functions. There is also a popup menu when you right-click on the elements in each panel. The following table describes the buttons and right-click menu items available in the panels of the Input tab.

Input tab toolbar buttons
Button | Right-Click Menu | Description
--- | --- | ---
Scope Variables Panel
|  | Coercions. It allows you to specify a type for Scope Variables elements that are not a specific datatype. For example, a choice element can be coerced into one of the possible datatypes for the element, or an element of a datatype `any` can be coerced into a specific datatype.
|  | Type Documentation. It allows you to specify or view documentation for schema elements.
| Expand | This menu item has two submenus: Content and All. Expand > Content expands the current element so that all elements that are currently used in a mapping are visible. Expand > All expands all subelements of the currently selected element.
| Show Connected | Expands the elements in the Function area to display elements that are mapped to the currently selected element or its subelements.
| Delete | Deletes the selected element.
| Copy | Copies the selected element. The element can be later pasted.
Function Panel
|  | Shows or hides the mapping formulas for the input elements.
|  | Move Up. Moves the selected element up in the Function tree.
|  | Move Down. Moves the selected element down in the Function tree.
| Move Out | Move Out. Promotes the selected element to the next highest level in the Function tree.
| Move In | Moves the currently selected element into a new statement. This displays the Move Into New Statement dialog that allows you to choose the statement you wish to move the element into. See XSLT Statements for more information about XPath statements.
| Delete | Deletes the mapping for the selected element. If no mapping is defined, the element itself is deleted (along with all child elements). Note: Elements are predefined. Do not delete elements. Deletion of an element causes mapper validation errors due to the mismatch of the right panel’s content with its schema.
|  | Insert. Click Insert to pop up a New XSLT Statement dialog where you can define an XSLT statement. The statement is inserted in the function input schema on the same level of the hierarchy as the currently selected element. You can add one XSLT statement at a time with this button. The right-click menu item Statement provides a shortcut for multi-line statements, such as Choice or If. See the description of the Statement menu item below for more information. Note: Elements are predefined. Do not add new elements. Doing so causes a mismatch of the right panel’s contents with its schema. See XSLT Statements for more information about XSLT statements.
|  | Add Child. Adds a statement for a child element to the currently selected element.
|  | Mapper Check and Repair. Verifies the XSLT template that you have created in the Function panel against the expected input. A list of errors and warnings appear and you can choose which items you wish to fix. TIBCO BusinessEvents attempts to fix simple problems such as adding missing items that are expected. See Incorrect Mappings for more information.
|  | Edit Statement. It allows you to modify an XSLT statement for the element. See XSLT Statements for more information about XSLT statements.
| Edit | XPath Formula Builder. It invokes the XPath formula builder. You can use this editor to create an XPath statement for this input element. See XPath Formula Builder For XPath 1.0 for more information about XPath and the XPath formula builder.
| Expand | This menu item has three submenus: Content, Errors, and All. Expand > Content expands the current element so that all subelements that have a mapping or expression are visible. Expand > Errors expands the current element so that all subelements that have an error in their expression are visible. Expand > All expands all subelements of the currently selected element.
| Show Connected | Expands the elements in the Scope Variables panel to display elements that are mapped to the currently selected element or its subelements.
| Statement | This menu item contains shortcuts that allow you to add easily one or more desired XSLT statements with one menu item instead of adding one or more statements with the Insert button. See Statement Menu Options for a description of the subitems of this menu.
| Undo `operation` | Rolls back the last operation performed. The name of the last operation is shown.
| Redo `operation` | Performs the last operation that was undone with the Undo menu item. The name of the last operation is shown.
| Cut | Deletes the selected element. The element can later be pasted to a new location.
| Copy | Copies the selected element.
| Paste | Pastes the last element that was copied or cut.
