Hello Q4D

 

Suppose I want to flag a data set for future work or identify a view that I might want to see again, is there any way to add a book mark or set a flag on an object in Quantum 4D?

 

Thanks,

 

Sandy

Sandy,

I have two answers for you on this one. You can designate a favorite space (works like bookmarks) and/or create a note an object or a space. The advantage to adding a favorite space is that you can return to the space at any time. A note works well if you want to draw someone's attention to something important in the space or object. Flags are a different story. They are used to alert the user when something happens. For example, you can map a flag alert to appear when a ticker closes under a designated value.

 

To add favorite spaces:

1. Click on any space in the tree to select it (except the current space)

2. Click on the start + button on the "Go" toolbar: go toolbar

3. The selected space has been added to your favorites.

To access your favorite spaces, click on the start button next to the star +. A panel will open with all of your favorite spaces.


To add a note on your current space:

1. Click Edit>New>Note

2. Enter your information and click OK

You will now see a note on that space


To add a note on an object:

1. Right click an object

2. Select New>Note

3. Enter your information and click OK

 

To view all note within a space and on any objects within the space :

1. Click Lens>View Notes

 

I hope this helps! If you still have more questions, let us know.
