Parent and Child Nodes

Each component of a rule or action is displayed as a hierarchy of parent and child "nodes".

The root node is displayed at the top, and can be considered the top-level parent node. Conditions are child nodes of this root.

Child nodes are required for some components (such as conditions) and if using Auto-Assist they will be added automatically when required (see Auto-Assist).

Expanding and Collapsing Nodes

Nodes can be expanded and collapsed using the + and - icons, or by double clicking on a parent node.

You can also right-click on a node to display a menu with further options such as Collapse All or Expand All, to control the entire hierarchy of nodes.

Minimized View can be used to collapse a rule to its smallest readable state (i.e. where enough information to describe the rule or action is still displayed). By default, rules and actions are initially opened in minimized view.
