3.2.3 Major differences to the Windows Explorer
In many respects you use the tree view and the list view
like their explorer counterparts.
There are a few differences: Using JBrowser
- You cannot move or copy objects by drag & drop.
- The tree view's [fold in/fold out] icons let you display or hide the
names of the folders contained in a folder, but these icons are displayed
only after the folder has been opened and its content is displayed in the list view.
- The list view allows you to sort the items by most of the categories -
simply click the respective column header to sort the table.
Sorting is done in JBrowser; the sort order in the HTML-based folder page is not affected.
-
Some modifications of objects may not directly be reflected at the user interface,
especially when you change objects in the Web browser.
In this case you have to update the current view: choose [reload].
Changes made within the JBrowser, e.g. in-place editing of object names
and description, will automatically trigger a refresh in JBrowser.
- The optional info view is a JBrowser feature which is not available
in the Windows File Explorer. The text field in the info view
displays the description of the selected object or the
message of the selected note. Both may be edited in the textfield.
