View Properties (Shelf/Toolbar)
 
 
 

Sets attributes for shelf and toolbar panes in layouts and relational views.

To display: In the layout editor or relational view editor, right-click on a shelf pane and choose Set View Properties.

Show Tabs

Controls whether tabs are displayed or not in the pane. This overrides the default setting in the shelf itself.

Active Tab

Specifies which tab is active when the shelf is first opened.

displaymode

Specifies how the shelf contents are displayed: Thumbnail Only, Text Only, or Thumbnail + Text.

File Path

The path of a directory whose contents are to be displayed (if the shelf is a folder type). This overrides the default setting in the shelf itself. You can use the values of environment variables in the path, for example, $mytextures

File Type

The file extensions of the file types to display (if the shelf is a folder type). Use semicolons to separate multiple extensions, for example, *.mdl;*.emdl

Target content

A comma-delimited list of elements to display in the shelf when it is first opened.

If the view is driven, this content can be replaced. You can also control this attribute programmatically even if the view is not driven.
