General

The repository content is structured into hierarchical nodes, similar to the folders of a filesystem. Each node will be displayed as an HTML page. Navigation between the pages is described in Navigate between pages. In the navigation frame, the nodes are shown as tree nodes.

Each node has a node type, associated properties and child nodes. The layout of the page depends on node type. However, it is always possible to change to the default view, which will show the properties of the node and, if present, the child nodes of the node, please compare Use the default view. In addition, the icon may depend on the type, provided you have added an icon of the node type name to /jcr:system/nodes/icons. For example, the icon for nodes:htmlDiv has been stored at /jcr:system/nodes/icons/nodes:htmlDiv.

Similarly, the icon displayed in the default view for the properties of a node can be configured. It is possible to configure the property icons for all node types (e.g. BOOLEAN for properties of boolean type). This can be overriden for a specific node type. It is even possible to configure properties for an enumerated property value of a specific node type.

Change to default view

To change to the default view, use the Change to default view control.
