Visual Elements

The main visual element in TC Tracker allows you to get an overall view of the Issues contained in a repository. It is also where most of the administrative tasks are carried out.

To access TC Tracker, use the link under the Windows Start menu and switch to the TC Tracker window.

The main TC Tracker window is split into four areas. The actual contents of these areas may vary based on the current selection.

1) Main Menu / Toolbar
The main menu and toolbar give full access to the features of TC Tracker. Some menu options are dependent on the current selection, and the Action menu is also available as a context menu when right-clicking in some of the other windows.

2) Folder Pane
The Folder Pane is used to display the Projects and Queries contained in a Repository. Right-clicking on any object in this pane will display a context menu based on the current selection.

Selecting an object in this pane will cause the Details Pane to update based on this selection.

3) List Pane
The List pane displays the list of objects directly contained by the object selected in the Folder Pane. Depending on the current selection, this is normally a list of the Issues or Queries contained or referenced by this object. Right-clicking on any object in this pane will display a context menu based on the current selection.

Selecting an object, or multiple objects, in this pane will cause the Detail and pane to update based on this selection.

4) Detail Pane
The detail pane displays details for the currently selected object in the Folder or List pane, depending on which is currently active. It contains a number of pages based on the current selection and may contain pages created by addin applications.
