You can expand the folders to display the Noetix views and columns or Noetix Analytics relationship sets, field definition folders, and fields. You can right-click in the left pane to access the Expand All, Collapse All, Unselect All commands on the shortcut menu.
  4. Right pane: Displays the entity-relationship diagram (ERD) for the selected metadata objects. Information about the associated hierarchies and applied filters is also displayed. A filter icon will appear on the object corresponding to a Noetix view or Noetix Analytics table when one or more filters are applied to the view or table.
  5. ERD: Shows a Venn diagram that is used to indicate the type of join between the selected metadata objects. The join type can be left outer join, right outer join, or inner join.
  6. Bottom pane: Displays the description of the current metadata object. You can move the pointer over an object to display the description of the object.
  7. Edit Filter: Enables you to specify the data filters for the selected NoetixViews columns or Noetix Analytics fields in the Data Filters window.
