The Text view displays a single level of relationship: one entity related directly to another. In addition, the Text view shows detailed information on entities and relationships in a table format, adding, editing, and displaying entities and relationships. You can start a search from either the Relationships list or the Entity list.

The following graphic shows a text view section.

The text view has two entity panes and their corresponding Entity properties pane, and one relationship pane with one relationship properties pane. Notice that each type of entity has a different icon: individuals have the person icon and households have the house icon associated with them. Select an entity in the Entities section of the pane to display its properties in the Entity properties pane. Similarly, select a relationship in the Relationships section to display its properties in the Relationship properties fields.

All operations involving views are performed using either the toolbar or the context menus.
