Favorites components
Hi I have several favorite components. The components have the Favorites checkbox checked (blue star). How can I quickly display only all favorite components in the GUI?
Is it possible to put items in the "category": Favorites?
There is the favorite filter.
I am planning the ability to store custom filter combinations as user-definable "views" but so far this is not existing.
Thanks for your response. I have an idea to add a Favorites option to the side menu. This category would display items with the tag: favorite. What do you think about this idea (It's just only Paint.exe)?
Could it be easily implemented?
I'd expect the sidebar entry in "Show"->"Filter" or "Views" or similar. Category is a data source, it would not make much sense to mix it up with filtered views.
If you want a link at the front page, put this in your banner:
<a href="parts?part_filter[favorite][value]=true">Favorite</a>
Please find a related discussion about filtering in #938.
Thanks for your workaround!
However, I don't know what I'm doing wrong, because I have inserted <a href="parts?part_filter[favorite][value]=true">Favorites</a>
in System -> System Settings -> Homepage banner section.
After refrashe main page, I have:
Sorry, I should've tested this on v2 first. You have to click on "Source" in the editor before putting the link in, then it gets correctly parsed as html.
PS:
The HTML is internally converted to markdown, so you can also use this:
[Favorite](parts?part_filter%5Bfavorite%5D%5Bvalue%5D=true)
Or (simplest solution) use the Link symbol (blue icon in the picture) to enter the URL only:
Beautiful! Wonderful! Perfect! Working!
Thanks you very much!
Maybe you know how update code:
parts?part_filter[favorite][value]=true
for this option?
parts?part_filter[lotNeedsRefill][value]=true
At the top of the main view area you can play around with filter settings yourself. Then observe the URL bar of your browser and you can extract whatever suits your needs as a link.
