8.1 Creating a New Custom Folder View

  1. Navigate to the folder or workspace where you want to create the new view.

    If you create a new folder view at the workspace level, the folder view can be enabled on any folder within the workspace. If you create the folder view at the folder level, the folder view can be enabled only on that folder where the view was created.

  2. Click Manage > Form and View Designers in the Folder toolbar.

    The Form and View Designers page is launched.

  3. Click New > Folder Views.

    The Add a New Definition form is displayed.

  4. Specify the following information in the Add a New Definition form:

    Caption: Specify the name of the folder view that you want to appear in the Teaming interface. (For example, “Custom Blog.”)

    Name: Specify the internal name of the folder view. This name is not visible to regular Teaming users. (For example, “custom_blog.”)

    Family: Select the folder type that this view is most closely associated with.

    Folder Icons: Select the icon that you want to represent the folder. The icon that you select is displayed with the name of the folder in the main sidebar.

  5. Click OK.

  6. To complete the creation process, continue with Section 8.2, Designing a Custom Folder View.
