Introduction |
The two graphical browsers, Hierarchy and Declaration have a variety of configuration options which may be set via the Options menu of the menu bar. These options control the layout and drawing of the graphic views and vary based on the type of view.
In addition, certain toolbar actions are in effect when a Graphical View is in focus..
The scale menu allows you to choose the size of the text used. All picture sizes and layouts vary with text point size. The currently selected size is shown with a check mark on the left.
Note that other point sizes can be added through customization of configuration files found in the Understand for Ada installation directory. Contact support@scitools.com for information on how to do this.
The Text menu sets the manner that entity names are trimmed or altered for layout of graphics. Names may be truncated to a certain length or wrapped at a certain length.
- No TruncationThe Names menu controls whether or not full Ada names are used in the given drawing. A full Ada name includes its parent compilation units, and is analogous to not having a Use clause in your code. For instance,
- Text_Io.Put is the fully specified name.
Longer versus shorter names can alter the layout of pictures substantially.
The Layout menu controls the layout algorithm for a hierarchical chart. Only available on Hierarchy views (invocation, callby, instantiations, instantiated-by, with, withby, file contents, file declaration tree, type tree, type-derived from tree, child lib units, and parent units).
· Crossing - a left-right view, minimizing space used but sacrificing some readability by permitting lines between entities to cross.
The Level menu controls the number of levels to be traversed when laying out a Hierarchical view. The default value is "All Levels". Values of 1 to 5 may be set. Available only on Hierarchical views.
The Parameters menu controls if parameters are shown in Declaration or Hierarchical views. The default is Off, turning this On can make hierarchical pictures much bigger.
The Called By menu controls if call by's (who calls this entity) are shown on a Declaration (e.g. package, function, procedure) . Default is On.
The Invocations menu controls on Declaration views if invocations (who this entity invokes) are drawn. The Default is On.
The Withs menu controls on Declaration views of compilation units (packages, tasks, separate procedures, etc...) if Withs are drawn. The default is On.
Controls if With Bys (who Withs a given compilation unit) are shown on Declaration views. The default is On.
