When I am signed in to mantis anonymously.
If I press "my view" I get a summary of several different views.
Unassigned Resolved Recently Modified
If I am logged in as a reporter add to those also
Reported by me Monitored by me.
There are several different things acting as filters.
The outermost is the project which can be
all projects
or exactly one of (currently):
squeak smallwiki2 croquet tweak squeak packages squeak website squeakland squeak 3.8
==========
If I press view issues I get a list of all issues (in my selected catagory and a list of filter settings
Reporter: Monitored By: Assigned To: Category: Severity: Resolution: Profile: [Myself] any any any any any any Status: Hide Status: Product Build: Product Version: Fixed in Version: Priority: any none any any any any Show: View Status: Show Sticky Issues: Changed(hrs): Use Date Filters: Relationships: 150 any No 6 No any Sort by: Last Update Descending
(above is a slightly edited paste of filters that come up when Reported by me is pressed.)
Pressing any of the fields will allow me to edit all fields and pressing a button (Use Filter) on the following line will regenerate the view with the filters applied.
The following line has
[-] -- a hyperlink to the view all bugs page Search: -- this is just a text discription. input box -- allows a search target string to be input. Apply Filter -- this is a confusingly named button that does the search and returns only the list of bugs that have the target [ Advanced Filters ] -- hyperlink or button that brings up the same page except this hyperlink will now read [ simple Filters ]
[Reset Filters] -- a pop up menu that gives me choices between reset filters, a blank line, nofiltering, and fixes. Use Filter -- button that applies the filters above this line. Manage Filters -- button that brings up a page that give me the option of selecting between the options that appeared in [Reset Filters] i.e.
nofiltering and fixes
both of which bring up the all bugs page with a different set of filters set.
nofiltering gives me a list of all bugs
fixes give me an empty set of bugs ( status is set to resolved and hide status is set to (Resolved and above) so I assume this is attached to the resolved view.)
==============
So Help.
How do I control what is set for the filters in the five views available to me.
When I do set filter setting what are they attached to?
And where are they stored ( on impara or in the cookies on my machine or ...)
I've got more questions but I don't want to unfocus this post any further than I already have.
Yours in service, -- Jerome Peace
