Filtering the Notebook View

Modified on Tue, 05 Apr 2022 at 05:52 PM

In the Notebook view, you can not only see your own entries, but all the entries you have access to. The Filter functionality at the top can help you find a specific entry more quickly. Any combination of Filter criteria is possible (i.e. Author and Tags, Projects and Authors and Dates, etc.) and the Filter is additive (i.e. selecting an author narrows the selection of Tags, as the Tags displayed are now relevant to the selected author).


TABLE OF CONTENTS


Through Notebook you can apply the following Filters: 



Filter for Projects

1. Go to NOTEBOOK2. To Filter for Projects in the Notebook view:

  1. Click Projects in the Filter bar at the top panel. All Projects in the Group Projects folder and subfolder that you have access to are displayed. The number after the header, Projects, tells you the number of Projects currently selected. 
  2. Right of the magnifying glass, type the Project name that you want to search for. 
  3. Or click the checkboxes to select the Projects you want to display in the Notebook. Selecting a folder will select all Projects in the folder. 
  4. Click on APPLY (Filter setting) to sort your view.

2. To filter for Authors in the Notebook view:

  2. Type in the name of the Author you want to find. 
  3. Select all group members whose entries you would want to see (members of the Groups or Subgroups will be listed accordingly). Selecting a group will automatically select all authors in this group. 
  4. Click on APPLY (Filter setting) to sort your view by the selected authors. All entries owned by the authors and shared with you will be opened on the Notebook page. 
  5. Choose Clear selection to deselect all authors. 



Filter for Tags

Note: This only works if the entry has any Tags associated with it, you are unable to Filter for entries without Tags using this function.


1.  Go to Notebook.

  3. Scroll through the dropdown list and click on the respective Tag. You’re able to select more than one Tag to help refine your search. Selecting one Tag will reduce the number of Tags shown next because the Filter is additive.
