IBM MQ Explorer Content view
The Content view in IBM MQ Explorer displays information about objects and properties.
When you click a folder in the Navigator view, the Content view displays the IBM MQ objects, and their properties, that are in the folder. When you click a queue manager in the Navigator view, a summary, or QuickView, of the queue manager's properties is displayed in the Content view.
When you select a queue manager set in the Navigator view, the Content view displays the grouped queue managers, as well as if the set is automatic or manual.
We can customize and reorder the properties and objects that are displayed in the Content view by using schemes and filters.
Gray cells in the Content view
Empty gray cells in the Content view indicate that the property is not relevant and cannot be set. For example, the Scope attribute is not valid for model queues. If you click the Queues folder to display its contents in the Content view, the Scope attribute cell is shaded gray for any model queues. Similarly, the Transmission Queue attribute cell is shaded gray for all queue types except for remote queue definitions, for which we can set the Transmission Queue attribute. If we have not set the Transmission Queue attribute for a remote queue definition, the cell is empty and white. White cells indicate that the property can be set.
We can change the color of these cells in the Preferences dialog. For more information, see Change the colors.
