2.2.2.2 New Object Nodes

After you create a project, Process Designer displays a Navigation Tree with the project name as the root node. However, the project root node does not have any children yet. The New option enables you to add a new node under the project root node in the Navigation Tree. New object nodes can be inserted as a child under any compound object node in the object hierarchy.

Creating New Object Node

1. Select the parent node in the Navigation Tree.
2. Open the New dialog box using one of the following steps:
   • Select Edit > New from the menu bar,
   • Right-click the selected node and select New from the context menu,
   • Click the New button on the toolbar.
3. The New dialog box appears, listing the type of nodes that are available to create under the selected node.
4. Select the object node types you wish to insert and set the amount of nodes you require of each type and click OK.

Just like working with windows, you can rename an object node by selecting the object node and then pressing the F2 button. The selected node type determines which type of node you can insert as children of the node. The following figure shows object node types available as children of a Resource Library.
