Configure Column Layouts
Most views in the Meridian client applications where columns of document properties are displayed can be configured. You can configure which columns are displayed and in what order. This is useful because users will want to see different properties in some views than others.
Each view can be configured using a different property page, as described in the following table.
However, the process for configuring the columns is the same for each page:
- In Configurator, expand Environment in the configuration tree and select Column Collections. The vault’s settings appear in property pages in the right pane.
- Click one of the tabs listed in the preceding table. The current column layout is shown.
- Click the Edit button to modify the layout.
-
To add a property to the layout, select a property from Available columns or From folder of type and click the right arrow button
to add it to the Displayed columns list.Note:Adding folder type properties to the Displayed columns list is required to make the properties searchable in the client applications.
- To remove a property from the Displayed columns list, select the property and click the left arrow button
. - After you have selected the appropriate properties, use the up arrow button
and down arrow button 
to arrange the order of the properties in the Displayed columns list. Their order determines the order in which they will appear in the view, from left to right. - Click OK to save your changes.
