# Open Selection

## Open Selection... / Define Graph... / Define Loop... / Define Table...

This context-sensitive menu item is the equivalent of a double-click. The dialog you get when you choose this item depends on the active window, and on what is selected within the window, as described below:

Open Selection...

- Open Selection... is an alternative to double-clicking as a means of opening a selected building block or object on either the Interface level or the Map/Model level. Open Selection... also allows you to open a selected model equation from the Equations level of the model.

For building blocks (Process Frame, Bundled Flow, and Bundled Connector on the Interface level; Stock, Flow and Converter on the Map/Model level), Buttons, Sliders, Graphical Input Devices, List Input Devices, Switches, Knobs, Sectors, Numeric Displays, and for Text Blocks, Open Selection... leads you to the entity's associated dialog. The dialogs for building blocks are described in Chapter 4 of this book. The dialogs for Buttons, Sliders, Graphical Input Devices, List Input Devices, Switches, Knobs, Sectors, Numeric Displays, Warning Devices, Graphics Frames, and Text Blocks are described in Chapter 6 of this book. For Loop, Graph, and Table Pad icons, Open Selection... takes you to the pages of the selected Loop, Graph, or Table Pad. They are also described in Chapter 6 of this book.

Define Graph...

- Define Graph... is an alternative to double-clicking on a Graph Pad page within an open Graph Pad. Define Graph... calls forth the dialog for defining a Graph Pad. This define dialog is described in Chapter 6.

Define Loop...

- Define Loop... is an alternative to double-clicking on a Loop Pad page within an open Loop Pad. Selecting Define Loop... calls forth the dialog for defining a Loop Pad. This define dialog is described in Chapter 6.

Define Table...

- Define Table... is an alternative to double-clicking on a Table Pad page within an open Table Pad. Choosing Define Table... calls forth the dialog for defining a Table Pad. This define dialog is described in Chapter 6.
