### iManager Tree View

The Tree view lets you browse a directory tree with a look and feel similar to ConsoleOne. Tree view uses both the Navigation frame and the Content frame to provide its functionality.

The Navigation frame displays the directory structure in the familiar ConsoleOne format. The Navigation frame displays Container, including Volume (file system), objects. Click on the plus and minus icons to expand and collapse the container objects and browse the directory tree. By default, the Navigation frame displays up to 100 subordinate objects per container, but you can change this setting in Preferences > Object View > Navigation Pane (Left Side).

Select a container object in the Navigation frame to display the subordinate objects in that container in the Content frame. The Content frame is where you actually manipulate directory objects, and includes a header from which you can select from among several actions:

> Bread Crumbs: At the top of the Content frame, the bread crumb feature that lets you navigate along the containers in the current context.

> Title Bar: Displays the name of the currently selected container object. Click the Pencil icon to edit the properties of this container.

> Object List Header: The object list header provides access to the following:

> - Menu Bar: Provides access to the object-related actions you can perform. Options include the following:
>   - New: Opens a dropdown menu of "create" tasks.
>   - Edit: Opens the property book for the selected objects so you can modify its attributes. Selecting multiple objects of the same type lets you set attributes for all the objects to the same value. To select an object to edit, select its checkbox in the object list.
>   - Delete: Deletes the selected objects. To select an object to edit, select its checkbox in the object list.
>   - Actions: Opens a dropdown menu of supported tasks for the selected objects. To perform a task, select if from the dropdown menu and provide the required information.
>     Note: If you have configured RBS, the Actions menu displays only those tasks in your assigned roles.
> - Object Count: To the right of the menu bar, Tree view lists the number of objects in the current page and the total number of objects in the selected container.
> - Sort: Directly above the Object list is a “Name” column heading and a sort icon . Click either of these to toggle the object sort between ascending and descending alphabetical order.
> - Define Filter: At the far right of the header, under the object count, is the object filter icon . Select this icon to create a filter that limits the objects displayed in the object list. You can filter on object type and object name, as needed.
>   Select Show All Containers to display container objects regardless of the defined filter.
>   Select Advanced Filter to open the Advanced Filter dialog and create a filter based on almost any attribute type.

> Object List: The Content frame’s object list displays all objects in the container currently selected in the Navigation frame. By default, the Content frame displays up to 100 subordinate objects per container, but you can change this setting in Preferences > Object View > Tree Content Pane (Right Side).

> To perform an action on an object, select its checkbox, then select the action from the Object List header. Select the (current level) object to perform an action on the container in which you are currently browsing.

> Select the double-period object to navigate up one level to the parent container.

> Important: Tree view does not support selecting objects across multiple pages in the object list. If you need to do this, use Object View’s Browse tab to perform the multiple object action.
