The following sections describe the Browser display modes in more detail.
In Instances View, the Browser displays the object instance hierarchy of your interface.

The following figure displays an example of the Browser in Instances view:
A list of all topLevelShells in your interface is displayed below the combination box in a scrolled list. Click on a member of this list to toggle its display on the Browser. Highlighted members are displayed, and un-highlighted members are hidden.
In Instances View, the Resource Editor displays different information depending on whether the currently selected object is a class instance or widget instance. Refer to Resource Editor for more detailed information about the Resource Editor.
In Classes View, the Browser displays the class instance hierarchy of your interface. Refer to Classes and Methods in the Builder Xcessory User's Guide for more detailed information about using classes.
To enter Classes View, select Classes from the Instance/Classes view combination box on the left side of the Browser. The Browser displays the object instance hierarchy of all classes in your interface:
Changes that you apply to a class are applied to all instances of that class in your interface. Although you might not observe these changes until you return to Instances View, these changes happen immediately. For example, if you change the membership of a class and generate code while still in Classes View, the generated files reflect this change.
Depending on whether the currently selected object is a class, widget instance, or class instance, the Resource Editor displays different information in Classes View. For more detailed information, refer to Resource Editor .
