8.4 Enabling the Folder View

After you have defined and designed the folder view, you need to enable it to be viewed by those who will use the folder.

You can enable the folder view to be the default folder view for a folder, or to be an alternate folder view.

8.4.1 Setting the Custom Folder View to Be the Default Folder View

Enabling Views to Be Used as the Default View

Before you can set a view as the default folder view, you need to enable that view.

  1. Navigate to the folder where you want to change the default view to the custom view that you created.

  2. In the Folder toolbar, click Manage > Configure.

    The Configure Default Settings page is displayed.

  3. In the Allowed Views section, select the custom view that you created.

  4. Click Apply.

    The custom folder view has now been added to the Default View section, and can be chosen as the default view, as described in Changing the Default Folder View After the Desired View Has Been Enabled.

Changing the Default Folder View After the Desired View Has Been Enabled

  1. In the Default View section of the Configure Default Settings page, select the custom folder view that you previously enabled in Enabling Views to Be Used as the Default View.

  2. Click Apply > Close.

8.4.2 Setting the Custom Folder View to Be an Alternate Folder View

Teaming enables you to set the custom folder view to be an alternate folder view. This lets users decide whether they want to see the custom folder view that you created instead of the default folder view.

  1. Navigate to the folder where you want to set the custom folder view as an alternate view.

  2. In the Folder toolbar, click Manage > Configure.

    The Configure Default Settings page is displayed.

  3. In the Allowed Views section, select the custom folder view that you created.

  4. Click Apply > Close.

Now, users who want to view the folder in the alternate view can click Folder View in the Folder Options section in the main sidebar, then select the custom folder view.
