How to show the tree for a spilled NE, and spill tiles for any related NEs

All NEs exist in the cabinet tree structure. By showing the tree for an NE you can see where it exists in the tree structure, and you can spill another NE place of the currently spilled NE.

1.The selected spill line is indicated spill - four buttons while all unselected lines are indicate NE - tile list icon. If the line is not already selected, click anywhere on the line to select it, then
2.Click spill - show tree - clickable to open the tree.
3.Navigate the tree to find the NE you want.
4.Click the desired NE. It will appear on the spill line.
5.Click Close to close the tree window.

 

i_blueBecause you can spill any NE (and therefore see its tiles) in the tree by clicking it from the tree, you can use the tree in spill plus the bench to quickly gather tiles from several related NEs. Just click through the NEs and drag all the tiles you want down onto the bench.
