 On the left of the tool window is the information tree. The tree displays all locations which contain annotations, as well as a subtree of tags by which annotations can be organized. Clicking or pressing enter on a node of the tree displays the list of annotations associated with that node. In Figure 1, the node APPLICATION, a class, has been selected, and its annotations are listed on the right.

+You can use pick-and-drop with the information tool. If you drop a pebble on the information tree, the annotation list, the "Locate currently edited class/cluster" icon [[Image:EIS locate class or cluster icon]] on the mini-toolbar, or the Info tab [[Image:EIS info tab]], the Information tool will find and display any annotations associated with the dropped pebble. If you drop a pebble on the "Add" button [[Image:EIS add button]] a new entry will be created for the object represented by the pebble. Lastly, dropping a pebble representing a target or cluster on the "Edit EIS auto-node generation property" button [[Image: automatic annotation icon]] will display the automatic node generation dialog for the target or cluster associated with the pebble.
