Saved Filters Tree

The Saved Filters tree tree allows you to create and save frequently used filters. Utilizing this tree with the Tag Bundles Tree makes it a powerful tool. You can save time by not having to go to folio and re-query the same filters every time or have to memorize the different filters. 

Using Saved Filters

To use the Saved Filters tree, set it as visible in the Select Tree drop-down. Once visible, you can select it in the Available Trees panel to create custom filters to save and reuse.

If the user selects the Saved Filters first to be included in the same folder, then clicking to create a new folder, it will put them all in the same folder. The user won't have to drag and drop them in there.

The rest of the tool properties apply to the folder as well such as editing and deleting.

Grid View Results

Once the user has created a Saved Filter, they can view the records it returns by selecting the Saved Filter under the parent tree in Available Trees panel.

If any are returned, they'll be displayed on the right side on the Grid View. It's like running the query in folio. In our case, we're querying for all the points with navName of "Damper" and under a specific floor.
