    Project Explorer

    After opening a project, a new section will appear on the left-hand side of the screen detailing project information. This is called the Project Explorer.

    The project explorer has been designed to be the central way of navigating around the data within your project. It has many powerful functions that allow for fast navigation and quick access to different aspects of your project.

    Each folder within the Project Explorer can be expanded to view further information. Select the arrow icon next to the folder to expand the selected item.

    A count of how many records are stored under the folder or table is listed next to each item. If this folder has further tables or subfolders underneath, then this is a total count of all data stored within.

    Note: The option to display empty groups can be enabled/disabled as needed by browsing through to Preferences ̶ Project Explorer and checking the box.

    Any item with a table icon is a table that contains data. Double-click to open the table within the OpenGround Cloud Professional interface.

    There is also the functionality to filter the results shown within the project explorer by using the filter drop-down list at the top of the project explorer section. Selecting an option will filter all counts within the project explorer to reflect the choice made. Further information on filtering can be found under the Multiple Filtering section of this guide.

    Filtering the project explorer in this way will only update counts within the project explorer and any grids that are opened after the filter is applied.

    Any grids that were opened prior to the filter being applied will remain unchanged.

    The Project Explorer also encompasses the OpenGround Cloud reports. These are tables that contain read only data that has been created from one or more groups in the project explorer tree. More information on reports can be found within the Reports section of the user guide.
