Associated vocabularies are deselected when certain vocabularies are deselected. For example, when the Base Vocabulary is deselected, the E&I Vocabulary and Engineering Vocabulary are also deselected.

The database views filter displays all database view sets as top-level items, with the database views as child items. The filter is populated the first time the database views filter is expanded, so there may be a delay while the data loads.

A database view can be a member of more than one database view set. In this case, all instances of the same database view in the filter are selected or deselected at the same time.

When a database view is selected, classes are added to the selected classes column based on the element types defined for the view. The element types (UDETs) can be any types that map to a model class. For example, the element types :Vessel, :VesselMECH and :FUNVessel will all select the Vessel class.
