Let's start by looking at the structure within which you will be navigating in RequisitePro.
Now let's look at some of the components a bit more closely.
Buttons. The toolbar buttons are shortcuts to frequently used menu commands. When you position your cursor over a button, a ToolTip appears, describing the button's function.
Explorer. The Explorer is RequisitePro's primary navigation window. In this window, project artifacts (documents, requirements, views, and packages) are displayed hierarchically in a tree browser. Project information is organized in packages, which are units of related artifacts. You can define your package structure in the way you think is most appropriate for your project.
You can use the Explorer to access, view, and edit your project artifacts. For example, you can double-click or right-click a view or document name in the Explorer to open it; you can select requirements and edit them, and you can drag and drop artifacts between packages. The Explorer is linked to all other windows, reflecting saved changes made to an open document, view, or requirement.
When you select an artifact in the Explorer, a description appears in the window below.
Packages. Project information is organized in packages that contain related requirements information. Within each package, artifacts are organized in the following order: documents (alphabetically by name), views (by type and then alphabetically within the type), and requirements (by type and then by tag). You can customize your packages so that they facilitate work on your project.
Views and documents are explained in separate modules.
