You can show or hide parts of a COBOL program in the outline view
according to the program structure.
When opened on a COBOL file, the outline view provides the following
toolbar buttons for filtering the contents of the view. These buttons toggle
the contents of the view. Click a button to activate the filter. Click it
again to restore the outline view to its original state.
- Sorts sibling nodes in the outline in ascending order by name.
- Causes the outline view to show only the four divisions (identification
division, environment division, data division, and procedure division) in
COBOL programs. The content of the divisions is not shown.
- Hides nested COBOL programs in the outline view.
- Shows the data division contents in the outline view. The other divisions
in the program are hidden.
- Shows the contents of the file section of the data division.
- Hides subordinate data items in the outline so that only level 1 data
items are shown.
- Shows the contents of the procedure division in the outline, including
sections and paragraphs in the procedure division. The identification division,
data division, and environment division are hidden.
