Outline

The Outline typically displays the hierarchy of elements in the page. However, if DGLux5 is currently in symbol editing mode, the Outline instead displays the hierarchy of elements inside the symbol that is currently being edited. By default, the Outline is located at the bottom right corner of the DGLux5 workspace.

The location of the Outline
