Selecting, highlighting, selected for operations
A single item may be selected by clicking on it or selecting it by clicking the Enter key on the keyboard. If activated, the "Page details" display will then show additional details of the highlighted item (to be defined separately).
A row is also visually highlighted on mouse over or by moving on the item using the up or down arrow key. No page details of a highlighted item are displayed, however. This is to prevent the interface from changing too rapidly, to keep it responsive and to prevent high load on the server.
One or more pages may be selected for operations by checking a checkbox assigned to the page. A subsequently started operation (such as a delete or copy operation) will then be performed sequentially on any such item.

When using a keyboard, clicking the right arrow key opens the currently highlighted folder item, while clicking the left arrow key closes it again.

By double-clicking an item or hitting the Enter key (again) on an already selected item, a separate window opens, which, depending on the permissions of the logged in user, shows an edit or inspection view of the item.
Show, hide and rearrange table columns

Columns may be shown in a configurable sequence. Again, the "Page name" and checkboxes column remain fixed.
When using the keyboard, the order and high/show settings of a column must be specified on a separate settings page still to be defined.
