The Summary Designer window lets you modify how an item's data displays in the [[Summary Window]]. The [[Media:ViewDesignerAndVictimView.png | figure]] to the left shows an example.

There are two panes in the Summary Designer window. The pane on the left displays a data tree of elements available for the selected item. You can drag elements to and from the data tree to populate your summary. On the right is the design pane, where you can add, removedelete, and modify elements. Above the design pane is a series of tabs that let you switch between pages.

#From In the [[IMSMA Navigation Window]], click '''Customisation > ''' menu &rarr; '''Summary Manager'''.#Select an item from the '''Object''' menu to display its complete list of viewsSummary Templates.#Select one of the item's existing summaries Summary Templates from the list.#Click the [[ImageFile:EditIconFieldViewIcon.png | 20px | Edit]] button to open the [[Summary Templates | Summary Designer]] window.

----''Data Elements'' are the relevant information (gathered during [[Entering Data into IMSMANG#Entering Data into the Data Entry Form Template| data entry]]) that display on an item's summary. You can move existing data elements around in the design pane, and resize, relabel, or delete them. You can also add elements by dragging them from the data tree to the design pane. With certain exceptions, only one instance of the same data element can be added to each tab.

----''Graphic Elements'' make up the visual layout of an item's summary, and are unaffected by data entry. They are the [[Summary Templates#Lines | lines]] that border or separate sections, [[Summary Templates#Text Boxes | text boxes]] where messages can be written, and [[Summary Templates#Images | images]] (like photographs, maps, and diagrams) that add to the visual aesthetic. All graphic elements are located in the Summary Designer data tree, inside the '''Tool Folder'''.
