Right-Button Menus

The right-button menus on individual resources depend on the panel in which you select the resource.

Project Panel

In addition to the cut, copy, delete, and rename commands, the following commands are available:

What Is This

Displays online Help for this resource.

Cut, Copy, Paste, Delete, Rename

Standard functionality.

Inspect Resource

Displays a Resource Inspector window which allows you to view information in a single location and also to easily compare two resources.

Move Resource

Moves the resource selected in the project panel into the resource selected in the design panel. This is useful, for example, when you want to move a resource into a different folder.

Moving a resource moves the selected, potentially configured resource. This differs from dragging a resource from the palette panel into the design panel, where an instance of the resource is created.

Link Resource

Creates a reference to the resource selected in the project panel and adds it to the resource displayed in the design panel.

New Folder

Creates a new folder. Only available if you can add a folder to the current resource, otherwise grayed out.

Add Resource

When you select this command, a submenu displays each available palette. For each palette, a submenu displays each resource.

Instead of using this menu, you can also drag and drop resources from the palette to the design panel.

Acquire-Check out Resource

Used in conjunction with a version control system. See Chapter 3.

Add Resource to RCS

If you have created a project or added resources to a project, you can use Add Resource to RCS to add the project or resource to the version control system.

A resource that has been added is not yet checked in. Checking in is a separate step.

Release-Revert Resource

Use this menu command if you have checked out a resource and you do not wish to make any changes to it (that is, you do not wish to check it in, but you do wish to release the lock).

View RCS Info for Resource

Displays the revision control system information for the resource.

Expand All / Collapse All

Makes all lower-level resources visible, or collapses the tree to show only top-level resources.

Toggle Custom Icon Support

If you select this menu item, a field for a custom icon reference becomes available for each folder resource.

Palette Panel

The right-button menu of the palette panel has these options:

Add This To The Project

Adds the selected resource to the project. This is equivalent to dragging the resource into the design panel.

What Is This

Displays online Help for this resource.

Show Palettes in New Window

Displays the palette panel in its own window. To make the panel part of the main window, close the separate window.
