Rational Developer for System z, Version 7.6

Segment Overview

The Overview tab displays the label in a read-write mode. It also displays information specific to the instance in a read-only mode and provides access to the other tabs of the instance.

Description of the tab

Three sections are not tabs themselves and are displayed in the Overview tab only. These are the Alerts and Action Items section, the General Information section and the Generation Parameters Definition section.

All the other sections provide links to the corresponding editor tabs.

If information is displayed in each section, you can:
  • click on it if it is displayed as a link. You will automatically switch to where the information has been specified.
  • or click the More... button to switch to the corresponding tab.

If no information is displayed in the section, just click on the arrows located in front of the section name. This gives you access to the More... button. Click on it to access the corresponding tab.
