Optimized query

To speed up the query you may use the optimized version.

Icons

Standard query: Optimized query:

The optimized query in combination with the remembering option includes the functionality to preselect data depending on the query restrictions, e.g. if you search for an identification and enter a taxonomic name the first identification matching the restrictions will be preselected in the main window as shown below.

Default

To set the “optimized query” and the “remember last query” option as default, go to AdministrationCustomize display in the menu of the main window. In the tab Defaults and miscellaneous select the “Optimized and “Remember” option. The buttons are hidden in the main window, providing more space.

Many columns

The option to include several columns in the result list is only available for optimized queries . To display several columns in the result list, click on the button next to the order by column (see below). A window will open where you can select the next column for the sorting. Underneath the order by column the second column for the sorting will be added. To remove this sorting column you can click on the    button. By default the width for the columns is set to 10. You can change this according to content. To set the width to the maximal length of the current content, click on the button. To change the sorting of the added order column click on the button. The colums are separated via " | " as shown in the image below.
