Using and Editing the Navigation Tree

The navigation tree is a faster, customizable way for you to navigate through Tracer Ensemble. The tree appears in the left navigation sidebar. By default, the Tree is always available in the left sidebar, but it can be hidden with the click of a button.

Using the tree+

To hide the tree, click the black arrow at the center right of the navigation pane. Click the arrow again to open the tree.
To resize the tree width, click and drag the right border of the navigation pane.
To expand a tree node, click the carrot next to the node.
When you click on an item in the tree, you will only see the nodes for that building. Click the red arrow to navigate back to the main tree.

Editing the tree
