Customizing Browser Rows

You can customize the LonMaker Browser so that it only displays rows containing network variables
or configuration properties, or you can hide specific network variables or configuration properties by
deleting the rows on which they appear.

Selecting Browser Rows to be Displayed

To select which objects are displayed in the LonMaker Browser (network variables and/or
configuration properties), open the Browse menu and click Options. The Browser Options dialog
opens on the General tab.

Under the display box, select which objects you want displayed in the browser. You have three
choices:

Network Variables. Only network variables are displayed in the browser.

Configuration Properties. Only configuration properties are displayed in the browser.

Both. Network variables and configuration properties are displayed in the browser.

Select the Sort NVs by Name check box if you want network variables to be listed alphabetically in
the browser. If this option is cleared, they are listed by network variable index. Changes to this option
do not affect the current browser window. To update the display, close and restart the browser.

Hiding Browser Rows

To hide a network variable or configuration property in the LonMaker Browser, click anywhere in the
row containing the object you want to hide, open the Edit menu, and then click Delete Row.
Alternatively, you can click a row and then press DELETE. The browser hides the selected row. This
selection does not affect the network variable or the configuration property itself.

To hide all configuration properties and network variables, open the Edit menu, click Delete All
Rows
, and then click OK on the warning dialog that appears.

To re-display a network variable or configuration property row that is currently hidden, open the Edit
menu, and then click Undelete Row. The Undo Delete dialog appears.
