Objects of a folder

A folder in BSCW basically behaves like a local folder on your computer. It may also contain the usual documents and subfolders. In addition, you may add further objects to the BSCW folder.

o  Chats and notes

o  Tasks

o  Search folder or saved search

o  Calendar

o  Template folder

o  Folder cover / description

o  Wiki or website folder

o  Flow Folder

o  Date coordination

o  Contact list

You can add new objects using the button  in the header.

All these objects can be shared with other users. You can apply a variety of actions to any object in BSCW. For example, folders may be compressed, documents may be frozen or shared via e-mail link, and much more. All these actions can be found in the context menu  of the respective object. Open the context menu  of an object by right-clicking on the corresponding element.

Note: Some of the objects and actions described here may not be available to you in all your workspaces if you lack the necessary rights (see 5.2 Access rights and roles), or if they have generally been hidden on your server by the administrator.
