Dialog Pages - <Project name>

The pages of the opened projects are displayed in this dialog. You can create, copy, or delete pages and edit their properties.

Warning:

Please note that for all actions relating to the naming of pages, the page name must not be more than 32 characters long and the subpage name 16 characters long. If this is not the case, they will not necessarily be correctly added to the page sort order.

Overview of the main dialog elements:

Tree tab:

In the tree view, the pages are displayed hierarchically nested by page type and structure identifier (if used). The page name can be directly changed in the tree view.

List tab:

In the list view, all of the pages are displayed vertically in a customizable table format. Some fields, such as the properties Page description, Drawing number, etc., can be directly edited in the list.

Filter:

This drop-down list displays all the available filters. A selected filter is automatically activated and is applied to both the tree and the list view. The "- Not activated -" entry deactivates the filter and causes an unfiltered display of the data. Click [...] to open the Filter dialog. Here you can create, edit, delete, copy, export, import, and manage filters.

The popup menu of the Filter drop-down list contains the following entries:

  • Deactivate: This popup menu item is available if a filter has been set: Resets the filter setting to the "- Not activated -" entry.
  • Activate <filter name>: This popup menu item is available if the filter setting is "- Not activated -": Reactivates the last active filter.

This allows you to toggle rapidly between the unfiltered representation and a representation filtered in accordance with your requirements.

Value: <Property>:

Use this field, via Quick input, to adjust quickly the value of a filter criterion for a defined and activated filter.

Popup menu:

The popup menu provides - depending on the field type (e.g. date, integer, multilingual) - the following menu items that are, depending on the situation, available for influencing the table or editing the values in the fields. You can find an overview of these popup menu items in the section Popup menu items.

In addition, the following dialog-specific popup menu items are available:
