Object Tree

The object tree contains all components which have texts to edit or to translate. Clicking on a tree elements opens its detail layout. In this layout all corresponding texts can be edited.

The object tree can be separated into two different sections: dynamic and static objects.

  1. Dynamic:
    These are Stages, Questions and Answer Options. All are sorted hierarchical. That means that like in the concept board a Question is placed within its Stage and an Answer Option within its Question. They are dynamic because if you add or delete something in the concept board the element is also added or deleted in the tree as well.

  2. Static:
    These are the Recommendation Stage, Product Card, General Configurations, Service Error Dialogs and the Restart Product Guide Dialog. Independent from the elements from the concept board these elements are always available and cannot be removed.
    (info) Note: Although the Recommendation Stage is static it can contain dynamic Question and Answer Option elements.
