Lexicon Display Options

Lexicon-specific controls and options are displayed at the top of both the Lexicon Report view and the Lexicon Editor view. For more details, see the view topics in the chapter, “Views”.

Both Lexicon Report view and Lexicon Editor view use a type of tabular presentation with the standard table features and options, as described in the Getting Started with Niagara. Lexicon-specific controls and options are displayed at the top of both the Lexicon Editor and Lexicon Report. These controls and options are shown here and described below:

Hide Ords
If enabled, it filters out any referenced based entries, such as modules://icons/x16/alarm.png
Hide Accelerators
If enabled, it filters out entries that define keyboard accelerators (entries end with “.accelerator”).
Hide Colors
If enabled, it filters out entries that define colors (entries end with “.bg” or “.fg”), such as those defined with hexadecimal code #FFFF0000.
Hide Fonts
If enabled, it filters out entries that define fonts.
Hide Types
If enabled, it filters out entries that end with “.displayName” or “.icon”.
Show Only Missing
If enabled, this shows only entries without any assigned values—entries will be the “red” orb ones only.
Show Only Completed
If enabled, this shows only entries that do have assigned values—entries will be the “green” orb ones only.

NOTE: The two “Show Only” settings are mutually exclusive.

In addition, the Lexicon display options can be accessed under the Lexicon Editor pull-down menu, as shown below. You can clear both of the “Show Only” options, but set only one.

NOTE: The default settings for these display options are set in the Options dialog box. However, these controls allow you to override the Workbench defaults.
