3.9 Metamodel Browser
3.9.1 Buttons and pull-down lists
The Default pull-down list sets the default project in
which new types will be stored.
The Tree pull-down list lets you select whether the
list of graph types is organised according to the explosion or decomposition
hierarchy, according to both of these hierarchies, or according to the subtype
structures among the graph types.
The Show pull-down list lets you select what is
viewed in the list on the right for the graph type selected in the middle list.
For example, ‘Object types’ shows all the object types in the
selected graph type.
The
Help button opens a window showing information
about the Metamodel Browser.
3.9.2 Project pop-up menu

Open... allows you to
select projects to be viewed and managed in Metamodel Browser and in other tools
of MetaEdit+.
Close... allows you to close a project. The types,
however, remain available until a new transaction is started.
New... creates a new project in which new method
specifications or models can be added.
3.9.3 Type list pop-up menu
The lists of the Metamodel Browser have a pop-up menu
including two items:

Edit opens a method
development tool (Graph, Object, Relationship or Role Tool) for the selected
method element.
Info opens a Type Info tool for the selected method
element.
Hide / Show Hierarchy lets you hide the
inheritance, explosion or decomposition structure below the selected
type.
