Grid Panel

The Grid panel is a shared space along the bottom of the main viewer page for the five data grids: Routines, Features, Samples, Processes and Results. Use the grid headers to navigate between grids. Click on a Grid header to go to the specific grid. The active grid is indicated with different color. If the grid panel is currently collapsed, clicking any of the grid headers will expand the grid panel.

If the Processes or Results grids appear to be missing specific data types, check your current selections in the Samples panel or selected Sieve. You may have settings applied that do not include those feature types or characteristics.

The grids are located at the bottom of the screen and can be expanded or collapsed as needed:

• Click on a Grid Header to open the grid panel; the header selected is the active grid in the panel.
• If the grid panel is already expanded, click a different grid header to switch to that grid.
• Click  above the upper right corner of the grids to collapse the grid panel.

The Results Grid cells with a red exclamation   icon contain data that is outside of specification limits.

Choose Columns

Export Data from Grids

Data loaded in the grids can be exported to an Excel file (*.xlsx). Filtering done on the grid-level does not effect the content of the export file.

To see which columns are available, click  to open the Export Data popup. There are two options for exporting data:  Export all data - exports all of the data loaded in the grid, regardless of selections or filters.   Export selected rows - exports only rows of data that are currently selected (checked)

Microsoft Excel does not need to be installed (either locally or on the server host) to use the export grid function.

Grid and Model Synchronization

Selecting a row of data in the grid will also select the feature marker on the 3D model, selection corresponding rows in the grids or open a report in the Report Panel.

Selecting Data in Sequence

Selecting data in one grid effects what appears in the other grids. 

For example, if you select a single Feature in the Feature Grid, then the other grids will only show the Samples, Processes and Results for the selected Feature.

Grid Controls

The grids have several built-in controls for finding or arranging data. All grid column headers can be used to sort, search or group data; some columns have an additional filter option. Check Grid Controls topic to see what can be combined, etc.

Filter Column

Columns can be filtered to narrow down the data in the grids to specific types, according to the selected column. Click  in the grid header to open the Filter options.

Group by Column

Columns may be grouped in order to organize the grid rows into a structural hierarchy. Each column that is grouped is designated as a node in the hierarchal tree and each successive column grouped is added as a subordinate of the previous column.

Search in Column

To search for something within a specific column, enter the string in the search field. This filtering is dynamic and will update the grid as you type. Each column can be searched with different text, but keep in mind that this search is composite, so if you type text into more than one column the data row must match all search strings in order to appear in the list.

		Contains	Contains an exact or partial match of the text string within the field you selected for filtering.
		Does not contain	Does not contain an exact or partial match of the text string within the field you selected for filtering.
		Does not equal	Does not match the value in the clause.
		Ends with	The entered string is an exact or partial match, starting with the end of the field.
		Equals	Matches the value in the clause.
		Reset	Returns the search field to its default state; deletes entered text and reverts the operator to the default 'Contains'.
		Starts with

Sort by Column

Columns of the grid can be sorted by left-clicking on the header or right-clicking on the header and selecting an option from the context menu. Once sorted, the sort direction is indicated by and in the header. To remove the column sorting, right-click and select Clear Sorting from the menu.
