Defining Filters

With filter settings you can define which content is to be displayed in the ES Repository.

You have the following filter settings:

• Choosing the Usage Profile

  Define a usage-related basic selection of object and model types using the usage profile.

  More information: Select Change Profile

• Choose object types

  With this filter function you can further restrict the basic selection offered by the usage profile and you can hide or show individual object types.

  More information: Select Object Types

  Note

  The selection is dependent upon the application profile chosen.

• Selecting software component versions

  Defines which software component versions are shown.

  In the Select Software Component Versions dialog box you can highlight the software components and software component versions that are to be displayed.

• Display software component lines

  Specifies whether software components or software component versions are displayed in the upper level of the navigation area.

• Displaying Lost and Found Objects

  Lost and found objects can occur when the folder to which objects were originally assigned has been deleted but the objects were not. These objects are then no longer displayed in the navigation area of the ES Builder.

  With this filter setting you can specify that lost and found objects are displayed.

  More information: Displaying Lost and Found Objects

  Note

  You can also hide individual software components or software component versions from the navigation tree. To do this, position your cursor on the software component or software component version and choose Hide in the context menu. To then re-display the software component or software component version, in the navigation area of the application toolbar choose the button with the arrow icon Change Filter Settings () → Restore Default.

To call the navigation settings, in the navigation area of the application toolbar, choose the pushbutton with the arrow symbol Change Filter Settings ().
