| Opening a type hierarchy on the current text selection |
| </h1> |
| <p> |
| To open a type hierarchy on a text selection, select the name of a Java element in the editor, and do one of the following: |
| </p> |
| <ul> |
| <li> |
| Press <strong>F4</strong> |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| select <strong>Open Type Hierarchy</strong> from the editor's pop-up menu |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| select <strong>Navigate > Open Type Hierarchy</strong> from the menu bar |
| </li> |
| </ul> |
| <strong>Note:</strong> If the selected Java element (or editor selection) is not a type or a compilation unit, the hierarchy opens on the type enclosing the current |
| selection. |
