Views
Views allow you to take a specific part of the tree and display it in a separate section. Thus, if, for example, a company's process model, organizational structure, architecture design, etc. is deeply embedded in the repository structure, this functionality makes it accessible to readers without having to search for it in a complicated way. These are thus views of specific repository tree packages and their contents, including the nested packages.

Creating a View
If the user has rights to edit the tree, right-click on the "Package" from which you want to create a view and put "Create View".
The message "Successfully saved" appears and the program creates a view.
The created view is included among the views that are available in the main menu.
If the user clicks on the view, it is displayed in the form of a tree. Thus, he sees only the package that has been marked as a view and its complete contents. In this way, it is possible to "pull up", for example, a process model, organizational structure, etc. that is otherwise embedded in the repository structure.
Editing and deleting a view
The views created by the user are then displayed in the view list, where they can be further described, named and assigned a color.
To edit a view, the user clicks on the "Edit" button.
The user will see the following table where they can see the color, name, package description, "Edit" and "Delete" buttons.
If the user clicks on the "Edit" button, the "Edit View" dialog will appear.
The user can edit:
- View name
- View description
- View color
- To change the color, the user clicks on the color label, then a mini dialog pops up to set the color
- The color selection dialog responds in two ways
- Left click and hold
- Left click
If everything is set, the user clicks the "Save" button.
To delete a view, the user clicks on the "Delete" button.
If the user clicks on the "Delete" button, the "Delete View" dialog will appear.
The dialog shows the name, description and color of the view the user wants to delete.
A warning message verifies whether the user really wants to delete the view. If not, the user will click the "Back" button and if the user really wants to delete the view, the user will click the "Delete" button.
You can also delete a view in the view editing dialog, see above, when the user clicks the "Delete" button and the "Delete View" dialog appears.
Default diagram settings
By clicking on the icon
the administrator can set a default diagram for the view.
Once the icon is clicked (filled in) the default diagram is set for all users who open the view.
Access to views
New functionality allows you to set limited access to the repository through views.
The repository manager can set up new "access to views" and remove "access to repository tree" to users.
Permissions can be assigned to the user or group.
Other specifications of the authorization can be set in permission on a specific package.
For example, if you have a user or a group access group and one of the views is a package in which a group or user has a ban on access, the view will not be displayed.
Reorder in views
You can change the sort order in the views. Just hold down the left mouse button and drag the View to the desired position.
