Making a Scenario Active
An active scenario on the shelf is one being displayed by the current View. Each View may show a different number of scenarios depending on its purpose.
A View accesses the list of scenarios on the shelf from left to right. By re-ordering the scenarios on the shelf you can promote a scenario so that it becomes the scenario being displayed by the View. Most Views show a single scenario only, so the first (left-most) position on the shelf is the active one and any scenario moved into this position will then be displayed by that View.
- Select at least two scenarios in the Scenario Manager. For more, see Choosing which Scenarios are on the Shelf.
If a scenario contains no data it is identified by a
icon and an information message is displayed.
In the following figure, the left scenario on the shelf is the active one and has a white background. All other scenarios are inactive and displayed with gray backgrounds.
