Filtering the Activity View

Like items on the chart surface, data in the Activity View updates to reflect the status of any filters that are applied. Depending on the filter options that you select, you can control the visibility of data within the view.

About this task

When filters are applied to the chart, items that do not match the selected filters are hidden or become revealed in gray on the chart surface. In the Activity View, activity data that relates to hidden items is removed from the view. However, you can control the visibility of activity data that relates to items that are revealed in gray.

Note:
To ensure that the required items are placed in a gray state when filters are applied, make sure that the filtering options are set up appropriately. Alternatively, to change the setting to show all hidden items in a gray state, click the View tab, and then in the Show and Hide Items group, click Reveal > Reveal in Gray.

Procedure

To configure how to display items that are made revealed in gray as the result of a filter:
  1. Click the Analyze tab, and then in the Gain Insight group, click Activity View.
    The Activity View opens.
  2. From the Options list in the Activity View, select one or both of the following options:
    OptionDescription
    Include Revealed Hidden Items Show primary rows for entities and links that are revealed in gray.
