Single-selection list

  • Select an object: a single click with the left button of the mouse.

  • Default action: a double click with the left button of the mouse.
    The default action may be, for example:

- opening the dialog box corresponding to the definition of the selected object;

- transferring the item currently selected in the list to the other list, when two lists are displayed side by side;

- retrieving an object selected in a prompt;

- etc.

 

Extended-selection list

The extended selection features the same characteristics as the single selection, with the following additional options:

 

Select several objects

Continuous selection:

Click an object, then drag the mouse along the list while holding the left button; release the button.
   

Or

Click an object, then release the button.

 

Press and hold the Shift key, then click a second object: all the objects between both objects will be selected.

Specific objects:

Press and hold the Ctrl key, then click each object to be selected.
 

Select all objects

Double-click the column heading with the left button of the mouse.

 

Deselect all objects

Double-click the column heading with the right button of the mouse.

 

Deselect an object

Press and hold the Ctrl key, then click the object to be deselected.

 

Note: When you select several objects in a list, the operation requested by activating a button (modify, copy, etc.) is applied successively to each object selected.

 

Sequencing objects

  1. Select the object to be moved.
  2. Move the mouse pointer on the list: a thick red line appears between two objects in the list.
  3. Click with the right button when the line is on the required location: the object is moved to this location.

 

Filters

For certain objects, an entry field located above the list can be used to enter a filter. This filter is a selection criterion which limits the list's displayed contents.

 

Alphanumeric filter

Alphanumeric filters may consist of figures, letters and joker characters such as "?" and "*".

 

Example:

    • The ITEM? filter displays all the objects whose name fits in five characters and starts with "ITEM".

    • The ITEM* filter displays all the objects starting with "ITEM".

    • The *10 filter displays all the objects ending with "10".

    • The *CODE* filter displays all the objects containing the word "CODE".

Numeric filter

You can set a numeric filter by defining a value range in the format: minimum value, dash, maximum value.

 

Example:

    • The filter 10-30 lists all values between 10 and 30.

    • The filter -50 lists all values lower than or equal to 50.

    • The filter 30- lists all values greater than or equal to 30.

    • The filter 50 lists the value 50.

Note: Numeric filters are currently only used for error messages.

Clicking the right mouse button in the entry field displays a list of the most recently-used filters.
