Setting a One to One Relationship

You will find one-to-one relationships throughout Author-it objects (often on the output tabs). These relationships are always selected in the same way.

To Set a One-to-One Relationship:

1. Choose the [...] button at the end of the property field. If you are setting a relationship to another Author-it object, the Select an Object window opens. This window may continue filling with objects even after it has been displayed.

   

   There are three ways you can view this window:

   • Show Details displays the Library Folders list in the left column, and the selected folder's contents in the right column.
   • Show Preview displays the Library Folders in the left column. The right column is split, showing the selected folder's contents, and a preview pane for viewing Topics and File objects. When the Preview pane is displayed you can also choose which output type you want to preview: Print, Help, or Web.
   • Show Property Sheet displays the selected objects properties in a list format.

     If you are setting a relationship to a different type of object (for example, a publishing template) a Windows dialog box is opened.

2. Select the required object and choose OK. The window closes and the object description is added to the property field.
