Using function scopes

When working with multiple scope functions you can collapse the details of individual mapping function scope containers. The workspace is maximized to focus on a single mapping scope.

  1. To collapse a function scope container:
    1. Right-click inside the mapping function scope container.
    2. Select Collapse.
      The mapping scope container collapses to a minimized view representing the detail of the mapping scope. The collapsed view shows a title representing the source of the mapping. If complete a tick icon is displayed in the bottom right corner of the minimized view. If the mapping function is incomplete a warning is displayed in place of the tick icon.
  2. To expand a function scope container:
    1. Right-click inside the collapsed mapping function scope container.
    2. Select Expand.
  3. To add a function to the function scope:
    1. Click and hold the function.
    2. Drag the function from the function tree to the function modeler editor to the relevant function scope. A widget representing the function is displayed.
    3. Release the function. A function is created on the editor window.
  4. Click Check mark to keep your function and close the Function Editor window.
    Note: If your function is invalid, a confirmation window is displayed.
    Click Cross to close the Function Editor window. Your edits are discarded.
