Grid View
The grid displays properties and values specific to this Find query.
If you have used a search string then the grid displays only those items that match the search criteria. For example, if you search for a specific tag number (to reduce the amount of tags displayed) only that tag number is displayed.
You can also:
-
Apply individual filters to each column (click in the column header and select the criteria from the available filters).
-
Sort the values in individual columns by clicking on the column header.
-
Group the results by dragging a column header to the Group area. For example, to group the properties by Tag Class you would drag the Tag Class column header to the Group area just above the column headers.
-
Rearrange the column order by dragging and repositioning columns within the grid.
Any layout changes made to a default query, are not saved when you close the dialog box.
When generating and saving PDFs in a Windows environment, you must have read/write permission for the folder where you save the PDF files. This is because of security features in Windows which only allows users with access to a folder, to save to that folder, even if the path and folder were set in Smart Instrumentation.
If you are unable to save a PDF, try changing the path and folder to a folder that you are sure you have access to.
