Chapter 21 Mapping and Transforming Data : Buttons, Menus, and Icons

Buttons, Menus, and Icons
The Input tab contains several toolbar buttons, popup menus, and icons. This section describes the various graphical elements of the Input tab.
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 elements in each panel. Table 33 describes the buttons and right-click menu items available in the panels of the Input tab.
 
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.
Note  Elements are predefined. Do not add new elements. Doing so causes a mismatch of the right panel’s contents with its schema.

Icons for Schema Element Datatypes
Schema elements also have a set of associated icons to indicate their type. Table 34 describes the icons used for schema items.
Qualifier Icons
Schema elements can have additional icons that specify qualifications. The qualifier icons have different meanings depending upon where they appear. For example, a question mark icon signifies an element is optional in the Scope Variables schema or in a hint in the Function panel. However, in an XSLT statement, the question mark signifies the statement is "collapsed" and an implicit "if" statement is set, but not displayed in the Function panel.
Table 35 describes the additional qualifiers that appear next to the name of schema items.
