Project Tab

The Project tab displays tree hierarchy of objects in the project. The tree can be expanded or collapsed by clicking the + or - signs to the left of each node. The type of each branch is identified by an icon and a text label. In most cases, a node corresponds to a specific line of code in one of the project files and double-clicking the node causes the source file to be displayed in an edit window with the corresponding code line highlighted. Right-clicking a node causes a menu to open, which usually contains commands for displaying the code (similar to the double-clicking the node), for expanding or collapsing the branch represented by the node, or viewing properties of the object.

The Project tab contains the following nodes under the main project node:
