Changing the Data Explorer View

09.03.2021

You can view files on your hard disk or indexed data in the Data Explorer task window.

Note:   Indexed data can only be displayed if data indexing has been enabled and the files have already been indexed.

Changing Views

From the Change View dropdown list box in the toolbar of the Data Explorer window, you can choose one of the following views:

View

Shows

List view (indexed data sets)

Shows indexed data sets as a list.

List view (indexed files)

Displays the indexed files as a list.

Tree View of Indexed Files

Displays the indexed files and the data sets that they contain in a tree view.

List View of Hard Disk Folder

Displays the contents of a folder on the hard disk as a list.

Tree View of Hard Disk Folder

Displays the contents of a hard disk folder and its subfolders hierarchically.

 

In the case of indexed data views, use a search filter that you create or select using the Search command on the Data Explorer toolbar to determine whether all indexed data sets or only selected data sets will be displayed.

The list and tree views of a hard disk folder are similar to Windows Explorer. Use these views to import non-indexed data into FlexPro using drag-and-drop.

Customizing the List View

You can display different properties for the indexed data sets in the list view. Right-click with your mouse on the column title to open a menu where you can choose the attributes to be displayed.
