Catalog Items View (Compact 2013)

3/26/2014

This window enables you to view and modify the catalog items in your OS design.

The catalog items are displayed in a tree of items. You can view information about an item in a tooltip window by moving the cursor to hover over the item. The information includes the Sysgen variable for the item.

You can view an item’s dependencies by right-clicking the item and selecting Dependencies. Platform Builder displays the other items that depend on that item, and the other items that the item depends on. If there is an item (marked with a green square) that is included in your design because you have selected other items that depend on it, you can find out which items by right-clicking the item and then clicking Reasons for Inclusion. Platform Builder displays the dependent items in the Reasons for Inclusion dialog box.

The Catalog Items View window displays a toolbar with several options that you can choose from.
