Re: Project browser docs
PB is broken in a lot of ways, especially when it comes to handling groups. There are several bug reports about it that go back a ways. On Mon, Dec 6, 2021 at 11:26 AM J.

Before the Project Browser was introduced Application Overview was the tool to get an overview of all loaded stacks, its substacks, cards and all objects on that cards.

Re: Project browser docs
I found a lesson on it but it doesn't say what the dotted outline around some cards means. A full explanation of the project browser should be in the user guide. I didn't think to check the lessons until today and newcomers may not even know the lessons exist. If the full documentation is too much to add to the guide, at least a link should be provided. Right now the guide only has a reference to a Project Browser section that doesn't exist. I prefer the horizontal layout in the Application Overview, but i thought I'd give the PB another try now that I'm working on a simpler project. It's too unweildy for multi-stack projects with lots of controls. -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | jac...@hyperactivesw.com HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.com On December 5, 2021 9:28:05 PM "J.
