Filter, but show Subdocuments
Posted: Mon Feb 06, 2006 11:32 pm
In the Filter Documents screen, you should have a "Show Subdocuments" checkbox. When the user enables this checkbox for a filter, the filter would include all the subdocuments (through an unlimited number of levels) of all filtered items, even if the subdocuments themselves do not satisfy the filtering criteria.
For example, I have a "Projects" filter that shows all documents that include a "projects" tag. However, I don't want to have to assign the "projects" tag to every document within the project. I would like to be able to tag the top-level document as a project and then when I enable my Projects filter, it would show my top-level "projects" documents, along with all their descendents.
