#!N #!N Most of the tools have a fixed number of 
inputs and outputs, but some, such as  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   Collect #!EF and 
 #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   Compute #!EF , allow the number of inputs to vary. 
For example, the default number of inputs for  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   Compute #!EF 
is two, but you may want to use the output from 
an expression that has six inputs. Data Explorer lets you change 
such tools to accommodate the extra inputs. #!N #!N To add 
input tabs to a tool on the canvas: #!N #!I0 #!N 
 #!F-adobe-times-medium-r-normal--18*   #!N #!N #!I30 #!N 1. Select the tool icon by 
clicking on it. #!N #!I30 #!N 2. Select the  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   Add 
Input Tab #!EF option from the  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   Input/Output Tabs #!EF option 
from the  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   Edit #!EF pull-down menu. (You can also use 
the  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   Ctrl+A #!EF accelerator key.) #!N Note: If the tool 
you selected has a fixed number of inputs, the  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   Add

#!EF #!N #!N #!N The appropriate number of input tabs are 
added to the tool icon. Typically, the  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   Add Input Tab 
#!EF option adds one tab to the icon. In the case 
of some tools, such as CollectNamed, that require inputs in pairs, 
two input tabs are added. To add multiple tabs, repeat the 
previous steps. #!N #!N When you change the number of input 
tabs on the tool icon, the tool's Configuration dialog box is 
updated to reflect the change. #!N #!N To remove input tabs 
from a tool on the canvas: #!N #!I0 #!N  #!F-adobe-times-medium-r-normal--18*   #!N 
#!N #!I30 #!N 1. Select the tool by clicking on it. 
#!N #!I30 #!N 2. Select the  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   Remove Input Tab #!EF 
option from the  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   Input/Output Tabs #!EF option from the  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   
Edit #!EF pull-down menu. (You can also use the  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   Ctrl+R 
#!EF accelerator key.) #!N Note: If the tool you selected has 
a fixed number of inputs, or if the icon has only 
the minimum number of tabs required for that tool, the  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   
Remove Input Tab #!EF option is grayed out. #!N #!N #!N 
The appropriate number of input tabs are removed from the right-side 
tool icon. If the tabs that are removed previously had connections 
to them, those connections are broken. It is possible for some 
tools to have zero input tabs. For example, you may want 
the  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   Compute #!EF module to contain only an expression, with 
no inputs. The output would be the result of the expression.
