Specifying panel views

If you chose to use the advanced panels (see Panels Style) instead of the basic panels, the content and layout of some ISPF panels are different. Several of the advanced panels have a menu bar in which there is a View menu. Depending on which view you select, the type and amount of information changes.

When listing and browsing operations in the current plan, from the View menu at the top of the panel (see EQQMOPRV - Choose View in the menu bar to change the panel view), you can choose from the following views:

Compact: The default view and displays the concise, summarized information.
Full: An extended view that provides more in-depth information about dates and time, dependencies, and operation properties.
Job Detail: The view of detailed, job-centric data such as JCL execution and completion information, timings, and operational data.
Graph: The graphical view of the operations, from which you can click an operation that you want to browse or modify.

In addition, the name of the template the panel uses is displayed next to the name of the view. There is a different template for each type of view of each type of advanced panel.
