Filter Properties Window

The Filter Properties window is used to create new filters or edit existing filters. These filters can be used to limit the projects displayed in the Project Manager or in the lists shown when importing or exporting entire projects or items/resources.

Specify a unique name for your filter and then use the following properties to define how the filter will limit the projects shown in the filtered list:

Filtering Options
- Filter by owner filters the projects by the name of the project owner. The available names are based on the user accounts defined in the current database.
- Filter by category filters the projects by the selected project category. The available categories are based on the project categories that have been defined in the current database.
- Filter by analysis filters the projects by the types of analyses (i.e., Xfmea/RCM++, Weibull++, ALTA and/or BlockSim analyses) they contain.
Other Options
- If Show locked projects is selected, the Locked node will be displayed in the Project Manager and any locked projects will be displayed under it. If this check box is cleared, the Locked node and all locked projects will be hidden.
- If Group by category is selected, the Public, Private and (if Show locked projects is selected) Locked nodes will each be subdivided into nodes for each project category. Only those categories that are currently in use by at least one project will be shown. If this check box is cleared, projects will not be divided by category.
- If Group by owner is selected, the projects will be grouped according to project owner. If the Group by category check box is also selected, each project category will be grouped by category and then by owner.
