Like history files, views are added through the context menu. Review the chapter "Viewing history files".
A prompt will appear to supply the dataset name.
The list of view definitions in the supplied dataset name will be downloaded. As with history files, right clicking and selecting "Open", or double clicking, opens the list of fault entries in the "Reports List" view.
The column configuration can be changed and set as the default. The default configuration only applies to history files and local views. Views defined on the host do not change.
If there is a filter defined for a view's columns, the menu shows the filter definition for those columns. An option is available to reset all filters to avoid changing each column individually.
A column match filter works the same as in the ISPF interface. The screenshot explains the wildcards. If the filter is not one defined by a view, clearing the filter will remove the filter.
The plug-in supports creating views locally. These views are not saved to the host currently. They will only be available under the "local.views" folder of the "Fault Analyzer Objects" view.
To add history files to the view, drag an existing history file or view definition onto the local view.
