Categories

The purpose of categories is to sort instances based on the filters in each category. An
instance is put into the first category that it passes the filters for. For each instance, cat-
egories are evaluated starting with the category listed at the top of the Configuration section.

Each category has a name and an operator associated with it. The operator (AND or OR) is
applied to all of the filters within the category to determine which instances are put in that
category. The operator associated with a category is displayed in the Description field of the
Configuration section, shown in the preceding figure.

A Default Category with an AND operator is created when the tool is created.

l

If the category has an AND operator, an instance must pass every filter in the cat-
egory.

l

If the category has an OR operator, the instance only needs to pass one of the cat-
egory's filters.

l

The category to which an instance is assigned is listed in the Category column of the
Results section.

If an instance fails all categories, the Results section displays Unassigned in the Cat-
egory column.

You can change the name and operator of a category by clicking Edit when the category is
selected, or by double-clicking the category name.

Up/Down Arrows (

)

Because instances are put into the first category they qualify for, it makes the
order of the categories in the Configuration section important. The Up and
Down arrows are used to move the categories up or down relative to the other
categories.

l

If the selected category or filter is at the top of its list, the Up-Arrow will
be greyed-out. For the bottom category, the Down-Arrow will be greyed-
out.

l

Although the arrows move the filters, too, the order of filters within a cat-
egory is not significant.

l

The arrows do not move filters between categories.

NOTE: The location results associated with each category are exposed to AdeptSight in a
separate frame index for each category. The first category is associated with frame 1, the
second category with frame 2, and so on.
