Panes
Throughout this help file, the word pane is used frequently. Search Party appears in a window, and that window is divided into panes. Search Party has four panes: the media pane, directory pane, details pane, and outline pane.
- Media pane: Contains all the text, photos, video and sound clips supplied by an organization. The web pages that contain all those materials make up the media pages. This is the pane that appears when you first open the program.
- Directory pane: Displays a list of the individuals profiled in the directory. You can view all the entries in the directory, search for a single person, or a group of individuals that match your search criteria. The directory pane appears on the top half of the right side pane.
- Details pane: Displays all the information available about an individual in the directory. This is the pane you use to get contact information, personal and professional information. You can add an individual to your favorites list so you never need to repeat a search. You can also add notes about the person and save the information. The details pane appears on the bottom half of the right side pane.
- Outline pane: Displays a hierarchical listing of the directory's contents. It is expandable and gives you access to the home page, all the directory's entries, Directory Lists, Favorites and the Internet.
