Previewing and Editing

How to view and edit information about items in lists

Showing and Hiding Previews

Most lists in Taglo software follow the same approach to displaying information about their items.

Clicking on an item in the list (or anywhere next to the item) will bring up a preview panel on the right-hand side of the list.

The only exception to this is when you are selecting an item from a list within a Dialog, in which case, clicking directly on the item will select the item - you will need to click next to the item to preview it.

Clicking on the close button () in the preview panel will collapse the preview to the right hand side of the list. To reopen the preview, press the open preview button () in the collapsed preview.

Preview Actions

You will also usually see a standard set of buttons at the top of the preview that will allow you to perform common actions:

  1. Edit the item - clicking here will open an Edit Wizard [or use Ctrl+E keyboard shortcut]

  2. Copy the item - clicking here will create a duplicate item [or use Ctrl+D keyboard shortcut]

  3. Delete the item - [or press Del key with one or more items selected in the list]

Edit, Copy and Delete controls are also shown on the collapsed preview.

In some lists, you may be able to edit multiple items simultaneously, and the preview panel will show a different view for single and multiple selections
