| Opening a type in the Package Explorer view |
| </h1> |
| <p> |
| You can open the Package Explorer on any type that is included on a project's class path. |
| </p> |
| <ol> |
| <li> |
| From the menu bar, select <strong>Navigate > Go To > Type.</strong> The Go to Type dialog opens. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| In the <strong>Choose a type</strong> field, begin typing an expression to narrow the list of available types, using wildcards as needed. As you |
| type, the list is filtered to display only types that match the current expression. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| In the <strong>Matching items</strong> list, select a type. Hint: you can press the <Strong>Down</strong> key to move to the first type. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| Click <strong>OK</strong> when you are done. The selected type is displayed in the Package Explorer. |
| </li> |
| </ol> |
| |
| <p> |
| <strong>Note:</strong> The Goto Type dialog maintains a history of recently opened types. |
| These are shown when the dialog is opened and stay above a separator line when you start to type a filter expression. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| <strong>Note:</strong> Revealing may not be possible if Package Explorer filters are applied. |
