You can display the properties of a database object at any time.
To display the properties of a database object
On the menu bar, click View | Navigation.
In the navigation, click the database object whose properties you would like to display.
Click Properties 
The Object properties dialog opens. This dialog contains several tabs displaying the properties of the selected database object. For more information, see Object properties.
Open the Solution view using View | Solution (see Opening the solution).
The solution can be used to display all the objects in the API Designer that can be opened from the navigation menu.
The solution view depends on your choice of project. If you select a solution project when starting the API Designer, the listed entries will be grouped according to their respective database modules and you will be able to disable the compilation of individual database modules. Database modules whose status has not changed, are shown as collapsed nodes. If you mark a subnode, you can run additional tasks.
You can also identify the objects whose status has changed in API Designer. Differences between changes in the API Designer and changes to resources in the database or on the hard disk are marked.
To open an object, double-click it in the solution.
The following table provides an overview of the various features available in the Solution window.

You can open the solution at any time.
To open the solution
Click View | Solution on the menu bar.
Open the definition tree view over View | Navigation | Click the required database object (see Opening the definition tree view).
Use the definition tree view to display and edit different database objects in API Designer. A separate tab containing a unique definition tree view will be opened for each database object that you edit. A definition tree view opens when adding or editing database objects, for example.
A database object contains what are known as nodes, which you can display in a tree structure within the definition tree view and edit in the node editor view (see Node editor view). If you add a new database object to your project (for example, an API project), this database object is created with a predefined number of nodes and is shown in the object definition. The object definition is a type of view found within the definition tree view.
The predefined nodes contained in a database object form the basic structure of the database object. You cannot delete these nodes.
In addition to the predefined nodes, you can add extra nodes by right-clicking on the context menu. You can delete these nodes.
The following table gives an overview of the various features contained on the toolbar within the definition tree view.
