Displaying objects in the Control Center

Use the Control Center to display objects so that you can work with them. Objects are displayed in the object tree and the contents pane.

To display objects in the object tree and contents pane:

  1. Open the Control Center.

  2. Expand the object tree by clicking on the plus signs (+) next to objects. As you expand the object tree down from a particular object, the objects that reside, or are contained, in that object are displayed underneath.

    At the lowest level of the tree, folders of objects (such as tables) that do not contain other objects are displayed.

  3. Click on an object (folder or icon) in the object tree. The objects that reside in, or are contained in, the selected object are displayed in the contents pane.

    Systems, instances, and databases are displayed in both the object tree and the contents pane. Objects that do not contain other objects are displayed only in the contents pane. For example, when you click on a Tables folder, all of the tables in the database are displayed in the contents pane.
