file link backward & file link forward File link - In some maps, files are linked directly, cutting across NEs. This makes it easy  to skip steps when this is appropriate and when you have all the right information, and then skip backward to where you were. file link forward links forward and then file link backward links backward.

 

NE name - object model info toggle / NE name - object model info toggle 2   NE name/object model description toggle - The map will either display the names of the NEs in the map or any descriptions that may have been attached to the NEs.
