Revision as of 07:16, 6 September 2019
The information in this Wiki Page applies to both TANE and TRS19 and will show you how to create a Picklist in TRS19 or TANE (both programs use identical methods).
- For instructions on how to backup a Picklist, see the wiki page How to Backup a Picklist
- For instructions on how to move a Picklist, see the wiki page How to Move a Picklist
Both programs provide you with two different methods of creating Picklists, using either Content Manager (or Manage Content from the TANE/TRS19 Launcher) or in Surveyor.
Using Content Manager (CM)
Step 1: Select the assets
|
Step 2: Add the assets to the Picklist
|
Step 3: Enter Picklist Name (for New Picklist option only)
|
Using Surveyor
In Surveyor in either TRS19 or TANE.
Step 1: Open the Picklist Window
|
Step 2: Add the assets to the Picklist Choose from one of two alternative methods |
|
When finished, right mouse click on the tool again to restore it to the Get Object state. |
Each asset is automatically saved to the Picklist when it is "dropped" or "clicked" into the Picklist window | |
If an added asset does not appear in the window, then it usually means that the asset is already present in the list | |
To remove an asset from the Picklist simply drag it out of the Picklist window onto the Surveyor screen |
Press the ESCape key to close the Search Filter/Picklist Tool.
