Create a Simple View

On Dragon1, you can filter models by using views.

Creating a View

To create a view:

Go to the Visual Designer
Make sure you have created a model, for example, existing out-of processes and applications.
Select a folder
Click on 'Insert View' in the Menu Bar
Enter a name for the View
Click on OK
Select the view in the folder
Click on Edit Data in the Inspector bar on the right
Enter the attributes as shown in the screenshot
Click OK

Now you see the view being generated.

If the data in the repository changes, your view will also change.

For views, there are many different settings and options. Read them all on this page Working with Views.
