Viewing Command History

A history of the modeling viewing commands is maintained (such as pan and zoom) that you execute for each model window. The history allows you to quickly return to a previous view in a window, using the following commands, accessible from the Model Editor's View menu and tool bar:

• Back ( ) — Displays the previous view in the view history.

• Forward ( ) — Displays the next view in the view history.

• Go To Parent ( ) — Opens, if necessary, the parent of the current subsystem and brings its window to the top of the desktop.

Note   A separate view history is maintained for each model window opened in the current session. As a result, the View > Back and View > Forward commands cannot cross window boundaries. For example, if window reuse is not on and you open a subsystem in another window, you cannot use the View > Back command to go to the window displaying the parent system. You must use the View > Go To Parent command in this case. On the other hand, if you enable window reuse and open a subsystem in the current window, you can use View > Back to restore the parent view.
