  1. From the main menu bar, select one of the following:

    • To manage objects associated with a module, select the manager menu items in the appropriate menu in the main menu bar. For example, to edit a material in the Property module you would select MaterialEditmaterial of your choice from the main menu bar.

    • To manage objects associated with a toolset, select the appropriate manager menu items in the Tools menu. For example, to delete a set, you would select ToolsSetDeleteset of your choice from the main menu bar.

    In most cases a dialog box appears; for example, when you rename an object, a dialog box appears that asks for the new name of the object.
