Studio Developer Cool New Feature #7 - Pinned Objects

How many times do you want to open a recent or commonly used object like an action diagram, procedure step or work set and have to waste time scrolling through a long list of objects to find it? Conversely, how many times do you use the ability to 'pin' frequently used documents in products like Word or Excel, or use the Recent Files options available in many tools?

If like me the answer is often, then you will enjoy the new feature in the Model Explorer to maintain a recently used objects list
and also to pin favourite objects.

In the example below, there are objects in the Pinned Objects list and also the Recently Used list which appear at the top of the Model Explorer.



With the Pinned Objects list you choose which objects to add or remove from the list.

For Recently Used it is automatically added to the Recently Used list when you open the object in it's editor. You can also customise preferences which specify which types of objects are added and how many objects are in the list.
