The orange bar (zone B) displays the project name and the navigation tabs: EQUIPMENT, ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT, DOCUMENTS, DEFECTS, and ACTIONS. The Project Options button (white circle with three dots) sits next to the project name and opens the Project Window.

The toolbar (zone C) changes depending on the active tab. Common controls include Edit, Select, Show Selection, Export to Excel, and filter controls (Filter, Undo Filter, Reset Filter). See each tab’s reference page for tab-specific buttons.

The grid (zone D) displays records for the active tab. Each column is sortable and filterable via the Edit Column Settings icon. See Filtering and Sorting for details.

Each row has a green circle icon on the left — click it to open the detail window for that record (e.g., Equipment Window, Defect Window, Action Window). The icon turns gray while its window is open. Only one detail window can be open at a time.

The pager bar at the bottom provides page navigation, items-per-page control, and a Refresh button.

The Project Window provides access to project-level configuration and management. The Project Options button (white circle with three dots) on the orange header bar, next to the project name, opens the Project Window.
