5.4 Common view operations

This section describes operations that are common to all views in JP1/IT Desktop Management 2.

Changing the displayed view according to your operation history

You can move backward and forward through your operation history to show previously-displayed views by clicking the [Figure] buttons that are located at the top of the operation window. To show or hide these buttons, select Option from the View menu.

Refreshing the information in a view

You can refresh the information in the view or panel that is currently being displayed.

Changing the items that are displayed in a list

You can change the management items that are displayed in the information area.

Filtering listed information

You can limit the information that is displayed in a list by using filters to specify display conditions.

Selecting multiple items in a list

You can select multiple items from a list that is being displayed in the information area.

You can select all items by selecting the check box in the left upper corner of the list. You can select multiple items by selecting the check box to the left of each item that you want to select, or by holding the Ctrl key while you click each item that you want to select. Alternatively, you can click one item, and then hold down the Shift key while you click another item to select all items between and including those two. When you use the Ctrl key or the Shift key to select items, click a place outside that item's check box.

When multiple items are selected, you can cancel the selection of an individual item by holding down the Ctrl key while clicking a selected item, or by clearing the check box of an item.

Using the menu that appears when you right-click the mouse

If you right-click inside a view, the currently-executable operations appear.

For example, if you right-click a group in the menu area, you can add a new tab to the information area. You can also perform actions such as editing a group, editing a filter, editing a custom group, and refreshing the information that is being displayed.

Additionally, by right-clicking the list in the information area, you can perform the same operations that are available as buttons or in the Action. You can also perform actions such as copying the information in the list to the clipboard, or changing the items that are displayed in the list.

Using a custom group

You can freely arrange device information or asset information into groups. By creating a group, you can register and manage information according to your needs. Such a group is called a custom group.

Switching list pages

If there are many items that need to be displayed in the list, the list is displayed across multiple pages. Move to the next page by clicking the [Figure] button in the upper right corner of the list. Return to the previous page by clicking the [Figure] button. You can also jump to a specific page by specifying a page number in the [Figure] area.

To change the number of items to be displayed on one page, click [Figure], and then select from 100, 250, 500, or 1,000 items per page. The default setting is 250 items per page.
