General
You can view the connections of an object from its object card.
-
You can only see the connections of objects for which you have at least viewing rights.
You can view connections in two ways:
-
Examine connections through the Connections block.
-
View connections via Tools > Connections > Show. If needed, you can close and open the connections block by clicking on the block's header bar.
Use the Connections block to view related objects
-
The title of the Connections block indicates the total number of connections.
-
If not all related objects are visible, open the Connections block or scroll the screen, allowing the program to load more related objects.
-
You can examine connections in three different views: as a list, as a visual list, and as boxes.
View as a list.
View as a visual list.
View as boxes.
Show connections
(1) Select the action Tools > Connections > View.
-
The program opens the connections related to the object in a separate window.
(2) If necessary, you can navigate to the related object's card by clicking on the object's .
(3) Return to the object's card by selecting Close window.
-
Alternatively, you can choose the object from the Back to XXXXX section, where XXXXX is the object's . In this case, the object's information will be reloaded, making the action slightly slower than the Close window function.
