Use of filters

The user can find assets with the selected properties (for example asset type, upload date) by using filters. 

The filter panel is located on the left side of the home screen. Filters can be expanded and collapsed individually, the state will be remembered when you login next time.

The number of results is shown next to filter values already prior to executing the search. The user can apply several filters at once and the number of results updates in real time.

Additionally, there is a number of search boxes available in the filters panel. The one placed right under the header of the panel serves as a supplementary global free-text search tool that further narrows down the results. The search boxes under the individual filters are a tool for quickly finding values within that filter.

It is possible to cancel the search by clicking "Clear all filters" above the assets.

Individual filters can be cleared either in the new filter chip area (above the assets) or by unselecting the filter option.

Excluding filters

On certain filters the user can choose to include or exclude the filter option, by hovering over the checkbox and expanding the options.

The above search will return assets of type 'Image', that do not contain the keyword 'water'.

Filter personalization

The user can individually customize the filters in the system, independent of the general configuration. In order to adjust the filters to own needs, the user needs to click the three dots next to the header and then select "Reorder and customize". This will initialize the edit mode.

The user can add new filters, remove and re-order them. To reset the filters to the default settings, click the 'Reset to default filters' button.

To change the order of the filters, the user needs to place the mouse pointer over the three lines next to the filter that should be appear higher or lower on the list, click on the icon and hold, while dragging the filter up or down. Clicking "Apply" will save the changes.
