## Domain Browser

The domain browser is used in a domain whenever detail changes are needed. Editing with the mouse allows only a limited accury. To come around this problem, the user has the posibility to enter coordinates and other values directly with the keyboard.

To do so, the user needs to open a domain browser by clicking on the button in the domain editor. To work only with a subset of the domain items, one can select only those he wants to edit and then choose Browse Selection from the selection mode context menu.

The domain browser window consists of two areas. The left area contains a list view of the domain. The domain items are grouped into different categories. Each category has its own subtree which contains the domain items itself. When an item is selected from the tree, its properties appear in the right area, where the user can change the values using text field, combo boxes and sliders.

It is also possible to edit multiple domain items at once. The user can select additional items in the tree by holding Ctrl. Then he can enter new values and mark the property for modification by activating the checkbox next to the changed property. The changes are applied when the corresponding button at the bottom of the window is pressed.

This works only for items which belong to the same category.

To create new items, select the category for the new item and click the button. removes the currently selected item from the domain. The button focuses the selected item in all editors for the domain. At last there is the button which selects all items in the category of the currently selected item.
