Outline View

The Outline view displays all PHP elements and element types in the current active file. The elements are grouped according to type and are displayed in a tree-like browser.

See PHP Icons for a description of the icons displayed in the Outline view.

Features

• The Outline View is updated interactively according to changes made in the files.
• Each type of PHP element is represented by a unique icon:

	Reserved PHP Words
	Functions
	Templates
	Classes
	Interfaces
	Constants
	Variables (public)
	Namespaces (PHP 5.3 only)
	Use Statements (PHP 5.3 only)

• The Outline view is integrated with the Editor. Therefore, if you select a PHP element in the view, the Editor will jump to the element's declaration in the file in which it is declared.

The View enables you to add PHPdoc blocks and, if available, Getters and Setters to any PHP element:
