Using Breadcrumbs

[Using IFS Enterprise Explorer Clients] [About Navigating IFS Enterprise Explorer] [To Navigating in IFS Enterprise Explorer]

Explanation

Breadcrumbs serve two purposes. They show you where you are in the application, e.g. which navigation path you took to the page you have open, and can also be used to quickly jump between functions in the application area you are working in. Each part of the breadcrumbs has a drop-down list where you can see the other navigator nodes under that folder.
