Index view

Index View

An Index view is an effective way to present users with a summary of what's available in a folder, sparing them the effort of opening each item manually. It serves as a dynamic guide, allowing users to quickly locate frequently accessed or critical files and folders.

For instance, in a project folder, you can create an index on a Writer file with organized links to key resources such as Getting Started guides, essential steps, and troubleshooting tips. By setting this file as the Index for the folder, team members can instantly access important documents and navigate to relevant sections with ease.

Notes
Notes:
  1. Supported file types for Index view: Zoho Writer files only
  2. Only users with Edit access or higher can add or remove Index for a folder.
 

Add Index view

  1. Go to the folder where you want to add the Index view.

  2. Create a new Zoho Writer file.

  3. Add the required links and organize them for easy access.

  4. Right-click on the Writer file and select Add as Index for this view. File will be added as Index to the current folder view.



  5. Click the Close icon at the top of the Index view to close it and see the default listing view of the current folder.

  6. Click the drop-down arrow next to Index at the top to change to a different view among Thumbnail, List, and Compact.



Notes
Notes:
  1. Once an Index view is added, all users who access the folder will see the Index view by default.
  2. Users will have the option to close the Index view to view the default folder listing when required.
  3. Only one Writer file can be designated as the Index at a time. If a file is already marked as the Index in a folder view, the Index option will not be available for other Writer files.
  4. You can select an index file only from the current folder. Files from other folders cannot be chosen as the index.

 Remove Index view 

  1. Go to the folder where you want to remove the Index view.

  2. Click the More actions icon at the top and select Remove file from Index.
    If the Index view is closed, you can right-click on the Index file and select Remove file from Index.


Notes
Note: If the index file is moved to a different folder or to Trash, the index view will be automatically removed.
