Customize and reference

Overview

This section gathers the options for tailoring how your results are presented - building your own views, saving and sharing them, annotating and tagging items, recording relationships that analysis cannot detect, hiding noise, and renaming items - together with reference material that explains how to interpret the figures CAST Imaging produces.

When to use this

Use these pages when you need to:

• Display the application grouped according to your own scopes rather than the default perspectives.
• Save a customized view and reload or share it later.
• Annotate objects with Post-Its and apply tags to classify and filter items.
• Record custom links and custom object types for relationships that analysis cannot detect.
• Add inserts and comments to the canvas, or work across multiple tabs.
• Hide low-level objects that add noise to a view.
• Give transactions and data call graphs more meaningful names.
• Review the AI-generated summary of a transaction.
• Understand what the sizing and measurement figures mean.

Customize your results

• Custom aggregation - display the application grouped according to your own scopes.
• Save and reload a view - preserve a customized canvas as a named view and reload or share it later.
• Annotate objects with Post-Its - add free-text notes to a view or to specific objects.
• Tag objects, transactions and modules - apply custom labels to classify and filter items.
• Add custom links between objects - record relationships that static analysis cannot detect.
• Add custom object types - add concept nodes for entities that analysis does not detect.
• Add inserts and canvas comments - add text, shapes and notes directly to the canvas.
• Manage multiple canvases with tabs - work across several views at the same time.
• Manage Level 5 - hide irrelevant Level 5 objects so views stay readable.
• Renaming transactions and data call graphs - apply meaningful names to transactions and data call graphs.
• Transaction summary - review the AI-generated summary of a transaction.
