The
inCode QuickView and the
inCode Sight views are used to display visualizations. In both view you can double-click an entity to open it in the editor. Also, both views allow you to see the name of entity pointed to by the mouse cursor, in the view's status bar (without having to focus on the view!). Additionally, the
inCode Sight view offers the following features:
- a tool tip window is displayed when the mouse hovers over an entity for several seconds (this window can be focused by pressing F2);
- an entity can be right-clicked to display its specific view
- the displayed figure can be zoomed-in (press "+") and/or zoomed-out (press "-")
- the current figure can be saved as a PNG file
When a design problem is detected
inCode sets a red marker on a ruler on the left side of the editor. The details of the problem and the potential restructuring tips are shown in the
inCode Tips view (opens when clicking on the marker and selecting the design problem).
inCode can compute an overview of a project (or any package of your choice) by right-clicking the project/package and selecting the
inCode... > inCode Overview (or
inCode... > inCode Overview with duplications). The overview contains information about complexity, coupling and the shapes of inheritance hierarchies, as well as a summary of the methods and classes affected by design problems.
inCode does not leave you out in the dark! It provides you with substantial help on visualizations and design problems. To get the help on visualizations press the "question-mark" button; The help on design problems is integrated in the global Eclipse help system.
