Some windows show data in columns. To show text that is truncated, you can drag the vertical
lines between the column titles to adjust the width of the columns or you can pause your mouse
over some truncated text to show the complete text as a tool tip. Depending on the data being
displayed, you can find more detailed information by:

Double-clicking an item in the list.

Selecting one or more items in the list, and then selecting an item in the Actions menu.

Most windows have an Actions menu that displays a list of actions that you can perform from that
window or on the selected item. Menu items in bold type show the default action for that window
or selected item. Double-click the item to perform the action.

CAUTION:

Use the various tabs, menus, and buttons throughout the program to navigate. Do

not use the browser navigation buttons. Doing so may cause loss of configuration data entered on
a window.

Command View TL uses toolbar buttons to perform tasks. These buttons may or may not be available
depending on the window.
