There are three different ViewItems in the namespace Custom.View.Items via the Class Browser
ReferenceViewItem
Use this to evaluate hierarchy informations between objects using references:
- Create a new instance of a ReferenceViewItem using the Bulk Editor
- Set the name of the reference property in the REFERENCE cell
- Set the REVERSE checkbox if the ReferenceViewItem should be evaluated from right to left instead of left to right
- Assign a query instance of the ReferenceViewItem to the REVERSEREFTYPE attribute either by
- dragging and dropping a metaclass object onto the cell
- selecting the desired MetaClass from the dialog appearing after double-clicking the cell
RelationViewItem
Use this to evaluate hierarchy informations between objects using relations:
- Create a new instance of a RelationViewItem using the Bulk Editor
- Set the REVERSE checkbox if the RelationViewItem should be evaluated from right to left instead of left to right
- Assign a query instance of the RelationViewItem to the RELATION attribute either by
- dragging and dropping a relation object onto the cell
- selecting the desired Relation from the dialog appearing after double-clicking the cell
QueryViewItem
Use this to place a query within a view:
- Create a new instance of a QueryViewItem using the Bulk Editor
- Assign a query instance of the QueryViewItem to the QUERY attribute either by
- Drag and drop a query object onto the cell
- Select the desired Query from the dialog appearing after double-clicking the cell
For all ViewItems
- Set at least name and description
- The required ViewItem's must be added to the view with the Relation Editor.
- Save the changes with Ctrl+S or the save command
