Document Navigation

In Connect, you have access to the projects that an Administrator has assigned to the group(s) you belong to. You can locate these projects using these two lists:

Project Type: Select a project type from the Project Type list to filter the Select Project list to only the selected type of projects.

Note: The Project Type list is only available if it has been enabled by a System Administrator in FileBound.

Select Project: Select a project from the Select Project list to view that project in Connect.

One you have selected a project, applicable separators and dividers will be displayed. If the Connect widow width is large enough to display all separators for the project, separators will be displayed in tabs; otherwise, separators will be displayed in a drop-down list.

Note: Dividers are disabled until a file search is performed.

Index Panel

The Index Panel displays all index fields for the selected project. Using the Index Panel, you can search for an existing file, or create new files. See Basic file search and Create a file for more information.

To view all index fields, you can either use the side scroll bar or you can re-size the Connect window.

The Status Bar is located at the bottom of the application.

Transparency: You can adjust the transparency of Connect for times when you want the application to be displayed on top of other applications.

Integration Mode: This is where you set the integration mode to On or Off. See Connect integrations for more information.
