The initial view shows a graphical representation of a default spec file.
The information related to the selected node in the three level
(product.image.subsystem) hierarchy appears on the right.
Alter the PPPPrrrroooodddduuuucccctttt NNNNaaaammmmeeee and DDDDeeeessssccccrrrriiiippppttttiiiioooonnnn fields and press the AAAAppppppppllllyyyy arrow
button to assign this information to the product node, which is selected
initially. The Description field is what users of inst see when your
product is presented for installation by inst. To select another node,
click on it with the left mouse button.
The AAAAdddddddd pushbutton can be pressed to add a child to the currently
selected node. If your on a first level (product) node, pressing Add
will create a new second level (image) node. Similiarly, if an image
node is selected, when you press the the Add pushbutton you create a new
third level (subsystem) node. To add another product, click on the root
(the area around the nodes), and then press the Add pushbutton.
The DDDDeeeelllleeeetttteeee pushbutton will remove the subtree rooted at the selected
node. So, for example, if there are no release notes for your product,

When a new Source Root value is accepted, if the source and destination
pathnames matched beforehand, the destination pathname is changed to

prior to changing the source root, these will not be altered by the
operation.
