Objects page

This page is hosted by the Workspace window.

The Objects page is where you find and explore all objects of the workspace.

You can make this page the first page that opens when Prism has loaded a workspace; see Settings page.

Right-click an arrow, or press and hold it, to show the navigation history in that direction and click an item to navigate.

  • A bookmark icon precedes the current object (1) when the object is bookmarked.
  • A refresh button appears before the current object when the graph availability has changed; click it to reload the object.
