List View
A Document Object in a Chapter can be displayed in a List View. This tabular form lists the Document Objects together with their attributes. The Filter, Search and Sort options help you work with the set.
Sorting is done by clicking on the sorting glyphs next to the column caption.
Search Filter
Click on the Search Filter caption to narrow down the displayed Document Object set according to your selected filter criteria. Use the dropdown and the Plus button to add filter criteria and set the value for each criterion. The filter criteria are applied using an AND mechanism.
Note! The search filter settings are stored and applied again the next time you display a list for the given Design Control type.
