Data Tab

Modified on Tue, 18 Feb at 11:30 AM

The Data tab is a project-level interface for accessing, managing, and browsing the various Work Zone folders and project files (e.g. scans, models, asset tags, etc.) in a project.


When opening a Cintoo project from My Projects by clicking the Data View icon, the project will open on the Data tab by default. The Explorer Toolbar (1) is docked to the left side of the screen, the Work Zone Explorer (2) is located next to it, while the main view (3) displays the Work Zone folders and individual project files. 


Note: While in the Data Tab, Work Zone Explorer will be accessible only within the Explorer toolbar.


There are two display modes for viewing the Data tab which can be set based on user preference:


List Mode:


Tile Mode:


Clicking on a Work Zone folder name listed in the Work Zone Explorer will open and display its files or sub-folders in the main view:


When a Work Zone folder is selected from the Work Zone Explorer or from the main view, additional Work Zone folders can be displayed in the main view by clicking the check box next to the Work Zone name listed in the Work Zone Explorer:



Work Zone folders can be collapsed/expanded by clicking on the Work Zone directory name in the main view. Unchecking the Work Zone will hide the folders in the main directory.



Quickly find Work Zone folders or individual files within a project by selecting the root project folder at the top of the Work Zone Explorer, and using the search box tool in the main view:


The following attributes can be searched using the Data Tab search box:


Note: by default the search is partial, which means that it finds all the names of the files which contain the information searched. 

  • work zone folder name
  • file name

  • adding a prefix "type:" allows to search for a specific type of data. Supported keywords are scan, model, tag, workzone, sitemap, taglistgeoimage (360 images and IDD objects).
  • adding a prefix "id:" UUID of the file allows to perform an exact search by id:


  • narrowing down the search results to find the exact name of the file is done by adding a prefix "label:" and putting the name of the file searched in brackets "example"Please note that this search is case sensitive.


  • special case when a character is in the middle of the name of the file. To correctly process it by the search mechanism add "\" character before the character. For example initial filename is scan"example, then enter scan\"example to correctly search:
     


From the Data tab, various Actions (e.g. Delete, Edit, Download, Share, etc.) can be taken for selected Work Zone folders or individual project files:

  • List Mode: The various Action icons are displayed for each item in the main view on the right side of the screen under the Actions column:


  • Tile Mode: The various Action icons will appear when hovering the mouse cursor over an item in the main view:


Multiple items can be selected simultaneously by clicking the check box for each item in the main view, and the Actions for the multi-selected items will appear at the bottom of the screen:
