3.2.2 The JBrowser interface

A typical JBrowser window on your screen might look like this:

screenshot jbrowser window
Figure 3.2-2: JBrowser window

Below its menu bar and its button bar the JBrowser window displays three components:

  • the tree view (left, full height) presents the tree structure of your folders and discussions that you have expanded and scrolled into the window;
  • the list view (top right) displays one-line entries of the next-level objects contained in the folder that you have "opened" in the tree view. (The name of the current folder is shown in the title bar of the JBrowser window);
  • the info view (bottom right) displays some information from the info page of the object currently selected in the list view. The text field of the info view shows the description of the currently selected object - if it's a note, the message of the note is displayed in the text field.

You may change the size of the three components:

  • drag the borders between the components
  • to adjust width and height of the list view and the info view.

  • click the up/down arrow symbol on the horizontal border
  • to enlarge either the list view or the info view to full height.
