Folder Browser
The Folder Browser enables you to view documents in your repository based on how they have been organized; this is the main workspace through which you can administer and find your organization's information. The Folder Browser is composed of a toolbar and panes. The available panes are the Folder Pane, Search Pane, Contents Pane, and Preview Pane. The Folder Browser also allows you to use the Quick Search.

Navigating the Folder Browser
- When navigating the Folder Browser, use the BACKSPACE key to open the parent of the currently opened folder.
- When using the Folder Pane, the plus/minus symbol to the left of the folder name indicates whether that folder has sub-folders. The plus symbol indicates the folder can be expanded to display the folders residing within it. The minus symbol indicates you can collapse the folder branch.
- Selecting a folder in the Folder Pane will display the contents of that folder in the Contents Pane.
- Double-clicking a folder in the Folder Pane will expand or collapse the folder.
- Double-clicking a folder in the Contents Pane will open the selected folder.
