Filter tree while preserving hierarchy

I often use UR for presentation. Each info item is a slide. Same presentation may have different audience. Thus, I may have to modify the tree depending on the audience.

I can create a custom-key/tag or may be use different flags for each presentation/audience. I can then search for a specific tag. However, the search result does not preserve the hierarchy. Info items get flattened.

The hierarchy itself is a significant part of what is being presented. It allows me to show relationships and an overall summary.

How can I can filter the tree to have it show items with same tag/flag, yet preserve the hierarchy?

Thanks

It isn't possible to filter the tree in that way, but you can show and sort on the Hierarchy and Tree Order system attributes / columns in search results to display the hierarchy there.

I'll try it.
Will the sorted search results show tree indentations?

Thank

The Lineage column will show the tree hierarchy. This is also an Indent Level attribute that can be displayed.

I'am unable to make sense of how UR is ordering the items using TREE ORDER / INDENT LEVEL.
Could not get it to sort to match the tree.

What am I missing?

One other way to do this is by selectively linking items to each presentation. It almost worked, but linking an item will cause all its children to show as well.

I see you have an option to 'copy single'. Is there not a 'link single' option?

Thanks

You need to show the Lineage column and sort on Lineage first and Tree Order second (hold down Ctrl when clicking second column).

No -- a link is just a pointer to an item, which by definition includes its children.

Still, not working ...

Tried the 4 combination ...

1) lineage asc / tree order asc
2) lineage asc / tree order desc
3) lineage desc / tree order asc
4) lineage desc / tree order asc

None showed results to match tree.

Yeah, I guess that doesn't accomplish what you're trying to do.

Another way might be to mark the items that should be excluded from the second audience as Completed, then hide completed items when presenting to that audience.

'completed' flag does it. Albeit, I have to flag items every time audience changes. Is there a way to show/hide other flags too?

Thanks

No, but it's something to consider adding.

In 5.3, the flags to be hidden can be configured via Tools | Flags.
