Category Browser (wbutil-CategoryBrowser)

This view is the default view of the station’s CategoryService, and typically where you spend most of your time assigning categories to components after initially creating the categories.

NOTE: When an admin user (user with Admin write privilege on the CategoryService and on a particular station component being adjusted) makes a category mask adjustment, the user must also have at least the Operator write privilege on the category being adjusted in the category mask for the station object. This includes changes to check marks in the “Inherit” column—the user must have at least Operator write access to any altered categories applied from the Inherit change.
