Information valid from AMI version 8.0 initial release

Summary

The Brand Relations gadget lets you view and edit the current object's Brand Relations.

The gadget displays a pseudo-folder for each brand relation defined in Agility. The relations are displayed in alphanumeric order.

For each brand relation there is:

A 'handle' to expand/collapse the pseudo-folder
A checkbox to select/deselect the pseudo-folders contents
The name of the brand relation

Single-instance relations are displayed in black, while multi-instance relations are shown in blue text

Under each pseudo-folder the object linked to the current object via that relation is displayed:

A selection checkbox
The related object type icon
The related object's name

Selecting the object's name will navigate to that object and make it the current object. If more than one instance of that object exists, a dialog will open to prompt the user to select a specific instance.
