Access object properties
Properties are characteristics attached to a given “object”, such as an Identification, a Context, a Protein Group or a Peptide.
Most of the time these objects are represented by “nodes” in a tree view.
There are several ways to access object properties:
Show property sheet
From any tree view (MSIExplorer, ContextExplorer, etc.), select the node object your are interested in getting properties
Right-click to display context sensitive menu and select Properties
The Property Sheet will show up
Display/Hide columns in an tree view
From any tree view (MSIExplorer, ContextExplorer, etc., click on the small icon at the top right corner
The “Change Visible Columns” dialog will show up
Check/Uncheck the properties you want to show/hide, and validate
The header columns in the tree view will update automatically
