View Description
Outline The Outline view provides a structural layout of the BPEL process. You can view the process as either a hierarchical tree-structured outline or as a thumbnail view by pressing the associated button.
Palette
The primary editing, creation and viewing tools of the BPEL Designer are accessed from the Palette. The Palette can be docked either at the right or left edge of the BPEL Designer main window, or it can be detached and displayed in its own view.
  • The Selection Tool is used to select individual activities in the editors drawing canvas. Multiple activities can be selected by holding the CTRL or SHIFT keys in combination with left mouse click. The Marquee Tool allows selection of groups of activities by dragging a selection rectangle around them.
  • BPEL activities are created by dragging icons from the labeled Actions, Controls and Faults palette sections (or drawers), onto the editor’s drawing canvas. These sections can be collapsed and expanded by clicking on individual palette section titles. They can also be pinned to prevent them from collapsing if another section is expanded.
  • The tools at the bottom of the Palette are used to expand or shrink the drawing canvas.
Dashboard This panel is embedded in the BPEL Designer canvas and provides a quick overview of the BPEL elements that are defined for the currently selected activity or BPEL process. The process name appears at the top of the Dashboard. The main Dashboard area lists all of the Partner Links, Variables,Correlation Sets and Message Exchanges currently defined for the process. The green plus symbol and grey x symbol allow you to add and delete each of these elements. In-line editing of all element names works by selecting the name and then clicking again to enable the editor.
