There are three kind of tools directly available in a default development tool : [[Browsing tools]] on the left, the [[EiffelStudio Editor]] on the upper right and context tools on the lower right. No browsing tool, except the feature tool, displays information about a particular component. On the contrary, the editor and context tools display information about a given cluster, class or feature : they are centered on this component. There are several ways to center the editor on an element:
* use the [[Main address bar|address bar]] on the top of the editor. It allows you to set which class (and even which feature in the class) you want the editor to display. You may use wildcards ("?" or "*") as you type the names of these components.
* use [[Pick-and-drop mechanism|pick and drop]]. Pick a cluster, class or feature stone anywhere in EiffelStudio and drop it in the editor. It will center it on the component automatically.
* find it in the [[Cluster tool|cluster]], [[Feature tool|feature]], or [[Favorites tool|favorites]] tool and click it.
* find it in the [[Groups tool|groups]], [[Feature tool|feature]], or [[Favorites tool|favorites]] tool and click it.
The context tool can be [[Change data share mode|independent]] from the editor. If it is not, both the editor and the context tool will be centered on the same component. If it is, there is a [[Context tool address bar|second address bar]] , in the context tool title bar. You may then center the context tool on a component by using the three methods described for the editor. You can also center the context tool on the same component as the editor ( the context tool remaining independent): Just click [[Image:context-sync-icon]] or select '''Send to the context''' tool in the '''View''' menu. <br/>
To make the context tool independent if it is not, click [[Image:context-link-icon]] or select '''Isolate context tool''' in the '''View''' menu. To do the opposite, click the same icon or select '''Merge context tool''' in the '''View''' menu.

Once you [[Centering tools on a component|centered the editor]] on a feature, you have access to its text. The feature tab in the context tool can display more information. To have access to it, you have first to center the context tool on the wanted class and select the feature tab. You can then consult the different views of the text of the feature ([[Feature formatters: Basic text view|basic text]] or [[Feature formatters: Flat view|flat]]) and other information such as its [[Feature formatters: Callers|callers]] or its [[Descendant versions|descendant]] versions. <br/>
