    Filter Type

    Description

    Instance

    This filter is displayed as a list of values with the number of instances of that value.

    Tip:

    Use an instance filter for any data which has a narrow range of discrete values, such as a Keyword Data Set.

    Note:

    Instance filters are only available for alphanumeric Keyword Type Data Types, as well as the Document Name, Author, Document Type, Workflow Queue, Note Contents, and Note Type columns.

    Text

    This filter is displayed as a text box.

    Note:

    Text filters are available for all Keyword Type Data Types and columns.

    Pinch

    This filter is displayed as a slider, with two thumbs beneath a sparkline.

    Tip:

    Use a pinch filter for values with a moderate to large range, or when the user is unsure of specific range boundaries. Pinch filters should not be used for high precision or a small range of values.

    Note:

    Pinch filters are only available for non-alphanumeric Keyword Type Data Types, as well as the Document Date, Date Stored, Document Handle, Author ID, Arrival Time, and Note Count columns.
