Navigator
The Navigator is the user interface for the Shared Templates Drive. It consists of four convenient views that provide quick and easy access to your files:
- Templates
- Recent
- Featured
- Activity
Templates is the default view, users can switch between views by selecting the desired option from the menu sidebar.
Templates
The default Templates view includes the following components:
Template Context
The Template Context, Display Templates For, filters the Templates view to display only the selected template types. The filter is automatically set based on the menu used to launch the Navigator. It also sets the context during the template creation process, defaulting the Template Type to the selected filter setting.
The Template Context is shared between all four the Shared Templates views and provides the same functionality across all views.
Category Name Filter
The Category Name list allows you to select a specific category to further filter the Templates view to display only the templates matching the selected category. The filter is blank by default, displaying all templates. To clear the filter once selected, choose the blank value from the list.
Owned by me Filter
Select the Owned by me option to only display the files owned by you. The option is disabled by default.
