All views are built using a GPD (Generic Presentation Descriptor: see chapter 8). For example, you might have a view of a document created using the GPD `document overview'. (To know which GPD a view uses, see section 2.18.) Perhaps you wish instead to see the same composition but using the `full document' GPD. First, click on the Command Menu button `Expand ...', which will create a menu of all available GPD's. Then click on the item you wish to expand and click on the name of the GPD you wish to use. This will expand the item using that GPD.
One useful GPD to use in this way is the `node' GPD, which gives a representation of the entire information component of which the item is a part.
