Basic Options

Four checkboxes determine which objects appear in the To Do List. At least one of these checkboxes must be ticked in order to Search, unless you have selected a custom Filter.

  • Object workflow status—Populate the To Do List with objects with the relevant object workflow status.
    • Global attribute workflow status—Populate the To Do List with objects with the

    The To Do List gadget will show objects within a selected structure point that are at an object workflow status you own.

    You can also use three checkboxes to display objects by their attributes:

    • Global attribute workflow status—show objects with a relevant global attribute workflow status.
    • Local attribute workflow status—Populate the To Do List with —show objects with the a relevant local attribute workflow status.
    • Attribute's Needs Translation flag—Populate the To Do List with —show objects with the Needs Translation flag set for one or more attributes.

    Within

    You can must limit search results to those objects found within a specific structure point. Select Set to make a selected object instance the Within structure point. 

    Filter

    By default the To Do list results are modified only by the settings above. However, there is also an optional Filter drop-down control that shows custom search filters defined for the gadget in the current workspace. For example, a filter could search only for objects in eventsEvent structures.

    Custom filters are set up by specifying an appropriate AQL string in the Workspace Editor. Be careful when writing them use Agility Query Language (AQL) queries, defined in the gadget's configuration. See A Guide to the Agility Query Language (AQL) for more information on AQL.

    Info

    Be careful not to accidentally disable the Within field: if your AQL doesn't start with something like "FIND BELOW " or "FIND CHILD ", the search will be across all structures rather than below the Within structure point.

    The default choice is "No Filter" and, and if no filters are defined, this will also be the only choice available.

    If a filter is selected the four object status and any checkbox options are ignored.
