MPI Overview module

The Overview module allows an overview of all your open projects.
At first it lists the project each project can be expanded by clicking on the disclosure arrow, windows and menus can then be expanded, right down to individual buttons and fields.

Windows, Backgrounds and Cards can be opened by clicking. By context clicking (control key or right mouse button) an object you get a contextual menu which can set styles, properties and edit scripts.

This means you can do a fair bit of editing without even having to open the window and card where is the object you are editing. You can even copy objects from a closed window, background or script to the clipboard and paste it onto the current card or background!.

You can also filter objects with the popup at the top of the module to simplify the view.

Clicking on the name of a selected object opens a field where you can rename it. This take a little getting used to, you need to click to select and object and then click again on the name to edit that. NB, double clicking will open the card (and window) the object is on.

Hilighting the Auto Zoom button on the palette will make the palette resize (within the limits of your monitor) when you expand a sublevel. The module will contract when collapsing a level too.

Here is an Overview Module Movie with notes which shows what is going on.
