Grids

Touchstone grids are tables that display projects, exposure views, contracts, and exposure data. Touchstone includes many different grids, including those used in the following components:

  • Projects pane

  • Exposure Summary Dashboard (Exposure Views)

  • Contract List

  • Locations List

  • Layers List

  • Step Functions

  • Activity Monitor

  • Data Source Manager

  • Zone Set Manager

You can sort and filter grid information, cut, copy, and paste it, and otherwise organize it to be optimally useful to you. The individual functions you can use with a grid depend on the type of grid you are working with.

Cutting, Copying, and Pasting Data in Grids

Since exposure and results grids contain different kinds of information, Touchstone manages these functions differently.

Grouping Results

The Data Quality Analysis feature displays results in the Report Detail Viewer. The Report Detail Viewer enables you to group and sub-group results information by column heading.

Using Column Chooser

The Column Chooser enables you to selectively view and reorder columns in large grids.

Sorting columns

To sort the grid by the values in a particular column, click the column heading once to sort the values in ascending order. Click the column heading a second time to sort the values in descending order. Touchstone sorts across all pages in the grid: it does not only sort the columns on the current page.
