Accessing summary information

This section describes another method to access summary information and how to navigate between a summary and its notifications or its default map.

In addition to the different methods for opening available consoles (Chapter 2, “Starting a Session,”), you can add a Summary view to any existing console to access summary information. (Chapter 9, “Customizing Your Console,” includes information about views and adding views.)

To navigate between an individual summary and its corresponding Notification Log view:

1. Right-click the summary and select Show Notifications in the shortcut menu. Or, for the selected summary, click Summary > Show Notifications or the Show Notifications toolbar button.

   The Notification Log view for the selected summary displays in a secondary window.

2. To return to the Summary view, click Close in the Notification Log view.

   To navigate between an individual summary and its corresponding default map:

3. Right-click the summary and select Show Map in the shortcut menu. The default type of map for the selected summary displays in a secondary window.

4. To return to the Summary view, click Close.

   Note:

   Show Map is enabled if a topological filter is specified for the summary. “Topology Filter dialog box” on page 108 includes additional information.
