A Query object can be shown within a View hierarchy similar to any other object, once the query is placed either as root object of the view or a child of another object shown in the view.

IC Hint square.pngBe aware that a corresponding View Item is necessary for a query as well.

Place query among root objects

  1. Navigate to the MetaClass VIEW in the Class Browser.
    Unit
  2. To see now the entire structure in the View Test Environment, locate an existing View, nor the required Root objects must be added to view with the Relation Editor.
    Unit
  1. Connect a View object to the Relation Editor
  2. The query object needs to be added to the list of root objects, there are two different ways to achieve that:
  1. Save the changes with Ctrl+S or the save command
IC Attention.pngOnly the objects which are located directly underneath the Infrastructure relation will be part of the infrastructure. Their child objects will NOT be included (automatically).
