A common way of using this process is through the filtered display of cards on the __Workspace__. |
| + | |||
| + | In order to filter the display by a specific __Arc__, select the [Range] toolbar button on the [Cards] toolbar tab. This will display a list of all cards in the current project. | ||
| + | |||
| + | {{ :lostplot:manual:range_0001.jpg?200|}}If you chose to display only the first ten or the last ten cards when you loaded the project, only these cards in the list will be selected. While you can choose to manually select cards to display or not display, in larger projects this can become a long-winded process. Instead, you can use the drop-down menu at the bottom of the __Range__ dialog to select groups of cards automatically. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Selecting [All in list] will enable all cards in the project to be displayed, while selecting [Clear Range] will turn all cards off. In order to display //only// the cards from a specific arc, select the required arc from the list (when tags have been added, they also will show in the drop-down list). | ||
