Cannot find Browser
« on: May 20, 2021, 02:34:31 am »
Hello,

Another newbie question:  I'm on version 15.1, installed locally, on my laptop.  I Created several packages, diagrams, etc. to practice and self teach about EA.  I came across a tutorial where it was mentioned to go to Browser.  Nothing I do brings up the Browser where it shows the tree structure (folders).  If I go to Start/Portals/Explore when I click on Context Browser nothing happens.  Another suggestion IU found was to go to Start/Explore (which for me is the name of the section that only has Search and Portals/Browse (I don't have this)/Context Browser.

How do I get to see the folder structure I see in my tutorials?

Thanks!

Start/Explore/Portals/Windows/Explore/Project Browser

I know it awkward but get used to EA's unique interface.

Thanks.  I mentioned above: when I get to Explore section, nothing happens when I click on Project Browser, or Context Browser, or Diagram Browser.

It might be lost when using multiple screens. So look at edges whether you spot remains of windows.

Looked all over for hidden screen(s), even minimized everything so they would stand out.  No hidden screens . . .

If it's accidentally been relocated somewhere inaccessible, you can select a new workspace which will put all the windows back to their default positions. ribbon > Start > Workspaces. "Browse" would be a good workspace to start with.

Happens time to time - take a look at your page margin - you've probably accidentally minimized the browser window width to zero

Use perspectives menu to restore your windows after you messed something up!
