Browsing your circuit

As well as using the Contextual parameters/variables view windows to view a component’s parameters and variables, you can open the Model Explorer Model Explorer through the Edit > Show / Hide menu or the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+E.

You can select a component in the Model Explorer to perform the same actions as you would in the sketch area through a right-click. When you select a component in the Model Explorer, it is highlighted in the sketch, and vice versa.

The Model Explorer is most useful with a large sketch containing many components and supercomponents as we will see in later sections.
