In an Advanced Plan, when I select a filter, how do I Select All?

Hi @Cathy Grohman,

Actually, don't select anything at all. That's exactly the same as selecting all options.

Hope this helps!

Thank you for your quick reply!  I was hoping I could select all then unselect a few items as opposed to clicking all the needed items manually except for a few. (just being lazy)

Haha, I thought your were, as I saw the long list of components in your screenshot 😉

The filter function is at its best (and is designed for scenarios) when you want to actively select just a few options, not really exclude one or two from a long list. So there's not really an option to support your laziness in the best possible way, I'm afraid ...

But, assuming you have a valid - and repeatable - use case to exclude 1 or 2 components, you could consider selecting the ones you want to keep manually once and then save this as a separate view (I have no good environment to test this in myself, but I suppose that should work). Maybe that is a feasible workaround.

Thank you!

Hi,

In the example presented, what about if there are 20 components named IAM xxx?

If we type "IAM" in the Choose Components search, it'll reduce the selection to the 20 components but it does not actually allows us to select them all in order to display them on the timeline. Is there a way to select all those entries else than manually ticking?

Thanks in advance for your help.
