Manage Equipment Hierarchy

A hierarchy is built by selecting one or more items from the left-hand grid, then right-click on an item in the right-hand grid which is to become their parent.

Repeat this process until the structure is complete. A hierarchy can be constructed with many levels.

Alternatively, items can be selected (using the drag icon) and dragged to a new parent.
