Use this window to view the contents of your local UNIX system directories,
and to move and copy view files, filter files, and event list configuration
files between the Directory Browser window and your personal
library, which holds frequently-used files. You can also use the directory
browser to directly open views, filters, and event list configurations.
Complete this window as follows:
- Directory
- This field displays the full path name of the current directory. To change
the directory, perform either of the following actions:
- Type the full directory path in the field and press Enter.
- Double-click any directory icon in the directory display area.
- Directory display area
- This area displays the subdirectories that exist within the current directory.
A parent directory is depicted as an icon with two periods (..)
that represent the directory name. To move to a directory above the current
directory, double-click the parent directory icon.
- You can drag and drop files from this area of the directory browser into
your personal library in the Conductor:
- Use the middle mouse button to move files. (This is equivalent to using
the mv command.)
- Use the Ctrl key and middle mouse button simultaneously to copy files.
(This is equivalent to using the cp command.)
Note: You can drag and drop all icons except those representing
directories.
- You can similarly drag and drop all icons (except the prefs icon)
in the personal library into this directory display area.
- You can also directly open views, filters, and event list configurations
by double-clicking the relevant icons. Double-click a .elf icon
to open the defined filter within the Filter Builder. Double-click a .elv icon
to open the defined view within the View Builder. Double-click a .elc icon
to open the defined event list configuration within the Event List monitor
box window.
