Use filtering to view specific issues in the BCF manager

When you are connected to a project, BIMcollab allows you to filter issues based on issue properties such as Type, Milestone and 'Assigned to' and by using the Favorites bookmarks.

Filtering


Use the values from the dropdown or checkboxes to create a filter to view issues with specific values.
Next to the issue properties you can optionally filter out issues which are set with limited visibility.
To always view issues that are waiting on your approval regardless of the filter settings, use the option 'include issues that I have to approve'.



Saved filters

Save the filter and name it to add it to your saved filters.




You can apply a filter from the saved list.


Favorites

Apart from the filter function, you can also display a list of favorites in the BCF Manager.
To add an issue to a favorites list, right click on an issue in the Issues list and select the favorites list you wish to add it to.



To view a favorites list, click on the ‘filter’ button to select the favorites list you wish to view.



Favorite lists are personal to the user.
The filter option is not available when working offline with BCF files.

You can also narrow down the issue list using the search bar. When searching with numbers, the search specifically looks for issue numbers. If the issue title contains numbers, the surrounding text should also be included for the search to find your desired issue.
