Views

Different table views, such as the column width and order, the method of sorting values and filter settings can be saved as views.

You can create a view with the New view command in the context menu of the table header. If you use this command, a ribbon with tabs will appear above the table along with the new view which appears as a new tab. The new view is a copy of the currently selected view. Once you have entered the name for the new view, you can customize the table settings. You can then switch between the views simply by clicking the tabs above the table. If the table contains only one view, the tab ribbon with views will not be displayed.

Pinned views are displayed in the ribbon with tabs. New view is pinned by default. Using the Unpin command from the context menu, its tab will be moved from the ribbon with tabs into the drop-down box available via the ... command. You can display a maximum of one unpinned view in the ribbon with tabs. Then you can pin the unpinned view, either by the Pin command from the context menu, or by moving its tab to another position.

If you want to delete a view, right-click on the view tab that you want to delete and select Delete from the context menu.

You can also rename views: go to the context menu above the tabs – right-click on a tab of the view that you want to rename and select Rename from the context menu. A field opens where you can edit the name of the view.

The view with edited settings are displayed with * character at the end of the name, e.g. All*. If you want to keep the settings changes for the next opening of the window, save it using the Save view settings command from the context menu above the view tab or table header. If you don't save the settings before closing the window with the table, original settings will be used upon the next displaying of the table. Settings of unsaved views can be also restored into the last saved state using the Restore view settings command.

To change the order of the views, use your mouse to drag the respective view tab to the desired location. If you drag and drop the view outside of the bookmark ribbon and then back to a different location in the bookmark ribbon, the view you are dragging will swap places with the view over which you point the mouse. In the Alvao WebApp use the Move command available from the context menu to change the views order. You can move the view tab to the corresponding position by entering the numerical value.
