Group by columns

Drag the column header by which you want to group to the "Group" box or select the "Group" com­mand from the context menu of the column header.

You can add more grouping levels by dragging additional column headers into the Group box.

You can specify the order of the grouping boxes by placing new items before or after existing items. The target position is tagged by orange bars:

You can modify this order later by resorting these grouping boxes using drag-and-drop.

You can undo a grouping in one of the following ways:

Right-click the grouping box you want and select "Remove Group" in the context menu.

Click the grouping box concerned and drag-and-drop it back to the column headers of the table.

Use column set

A column set defines which columns display in the table and which do not. In addition, a column set also contains the column width settings.

In the "Column set" list box, you can:

select from existing column sets,

define new custom column sets,

delete column sets,

edit column sets.

An asterisk "*" displays next to the name of the column set while the changes to the column set are not saved.

Sort by column header

You can sort the list items, also within groups, in ascending or descending order by clicking a column header. The icon to the right of the column header that was sorted by indicates the sorting order.
