Someone who is interested in Aware asked me if there is the ability for a user to create and SAVE filters, and to modify column layout and SAVE that for the next time. Is this possible in Aware?
Thanks

user defined saved filters / columns
Re: user defined saved filters / columns
Yes to column layouts. You need to add two items to the top panel toolbar. Can’t remember what they are called (on my mobile phone) They are pretty obvious - something like Save Settings and Restore Defaults.
You can also add in columns that are “Hidden Initially”
Not sure about filters - never tried that
Keep in mind that if you subsequently change a grid layout and publish a new version, those who have saved their layouts are going to see strange results. Expect some support calls.
They will have to restore defaults and redo their layouts Before saving them again. (I am still on 8.1 things may have changed)
Keep in mind also this is on a per user basis not a systemwide change

I think that the functionality of saving and restoring the column layout is also explained in one of the videos. I tried searching that particular video but couldn't find, unfortunately.

thanks guys. I have no need for that, but a potential customer does.

Re: user defined saved filters / columns
Trying to play with end-user customization of a query and am running into problems. I can drag columns to re-order them, but when I restart the query, it is back to the original fields / order.
1). I see the save settings and restore setting as Panel operations, but have no idea what they do. They do not seem to save or restore anything.
2). If I have columns that are initially hidden, how can the end user display them? I see the mouse over option, but can the end user add a column that was initially hidden?
Thanks

Re: user defined saved filters / columns
Re 2) Click the three blobs next to any column heading, Go down to "Columns" The ones that aren't currently visible will be unticked, just tick them, then re-order them, then save settings. You should get a message that says something like "your settings have been saved" -
