Getting started with Multi-Structure Manager > Multi-Structure Manager interface
Multi-Structure Manager panes
The Multi-Structure Manager interface is divided into various panes.
| Pane | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Collaboration pane | The collaboration pane displays the collaboration context and any additional structures currently open in the application in a navigation tree. Any attachments are shown in the structure pane where you can open them and view their properties. |
| Structure pane | Each tabbed pane represents an open structure in the application. Closing a pane unloads the structure. You can load multiple structures simultaneously. |
| Data pane | These panes display information about the attributes and relations of the object selected in the BOM on the structure tab. The tabs displayed depend on the structure tab selected and the type of object selected in the BOM. |
| Second structure pane | By right-clicking a structure tab, you can open the structure in a second structure pane. Use this pane to compare structures. You can also open a data pane for the second structure pane. Close this pane by clicking Show/Hide the Second Structure Panel . |
The contents of the menus and toolbar buttons vary depending on what is selected in each pane.
