The Document Browser also appears throughout iMIS for locating relevant objects, which it does by filtering the view so that you only see folders and objects that are appropriate for your current task. The Document Browser always appears with these three panes:

1.  Document tree (left pane): displays all folders that are relevant to the context in which the Document System is displayed.

2.  Folder contents (right pane): displays the contents of the folder that is selected in the document tree area. Folder contents can comprise definition objects, subfolders, or links to items that are located in a different folder.

Tip:The Quick find box dynamically filters the folder contents, to help you to find items quickly when there are large numbers in the folder. Delete text to see more results. In Desktop, press F12 to apply the filtering.

3.  Summary (bottom pane): summarizes the basic properties of the item that is selected in the folder contents area. To show or hide the summary area, select Organize > Display Summary.
