Navigation is a bit different from navigation in the
File Browser window.
To expand a node and see its contents, click on its handle
(clicking on the handle when it is expanded will collapse it again).
When you have identified the table you want to open, highlight it
by clicking on it, and then click the Open Table button
at the bottom.
To move to a different directory, i.e. to change the root of the tree
which is displayed, use one of the buttons above the tree display:
-
Selector box
- Allows you to move straight to any directory higher up than the
current one.
-
Up
- Moves to the parent of the current directory.
-
Down
- Moves to the currently selected (highlighted) node.
-
Home
- Moves to the user's home directory.
Alternatively, you can type in a new directory
in the Go to field at the bottom of the window.
(In fact the above navigation options are not restricted to changing
the root to a new directory, they can move to any node in the
tree, for instance a level in a Tar archive.)
