View connections

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.


  • 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.

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.
