Info

Please note this option does not always work in combination with complex changes, for instance in your domain model.

End session

Clicking the button will end the main session. When developing your application we recommend using this function over closing the browsertab, as just closing the tab will still keep the session alive on the server untill the time out occurs. All open sessions take up memory on the server and this may result in a (temporary) decline of performance.

Session selector

This functionality is essential when using a dashboard. It is possible to put multiple widgets on a dashboard. By using the session selector, it is possible to switch to a selected widget and inspect its profile or piece of the front-end as decribed in the next paragraphs.

The profile explorer allows you to view and edit all current instances in the session. By clicking on an entity, the values of all attributes are shown in the attribute management. Using the add or delete buttons allows you to manually manipulate the session data (tba).

Attribute management

This option will allow you to manage the current attribute values. You can easily see the source type and see, clear or edit the attribute value(s).

This option will allow you to write and test and expression on live session data. It can evaluate to a selected instance from the instance management, or globally. You may also use the expression evaluator in the Quick test in Encore.

Element explorer

The element explorer displays all elements that are part of the runtime page model. This feature can be very useful to determine if the theme displays all page elements correctly. Turn on the element selection in the toolbar and you can select any item on the page of your session. Its values are then shown in the element explorer. From the selected element you can navigate to its parent or child element in the explorer. Or you can use the selector to view the data of a different item on the page.

...

This option allow you to minimize the toolbar to a small button overlayed on your session. Click the button again and the toolbar will open to its normal mode.

Remove toolbar

This option will completely remove the toolbar from the session. It cannot be opened again.
