The Class Relationship Pane

The Class Relationship pane, in the upper left in the
Classes tab, displays the classes
in the knowledge base as a tree. The Class Relationship pane includes four components:
- The Class Relationship menu allows you to
control the display of the classes in the Class Window.
- The Class Buttons allow you to create, edit,
and delete classes in your knowledge base.
- The Class Window displays your classes and allows you to rearrange your
hierarchy using "drag-and-drop". A number of icons give additional
information about your classes; see Icons for a description. See Replacing a Superclass
for information on rearranging your hierarchy.
- The Class Lookup Bar allows you to locate a class in the Class
Relationship window by typing all or part of the class name and clicking the binoculars.
See Finding a Class for more information.

Any changes you make in this window, or other windows, take effect
immediately. To make changes permanent, save your project by choosing Save
from the Project menu.
