Scale Results View

Scale Results View

The scale result set will be presented in a tabular form. The (found) scales can be arranged in columns. The columns itself can be resized. Besides, unnecessary columns can be set invisible (see preferences of this view).

Since the result set may be very large, this view is divided into pages for the sake of clarity. If many pages exist, the current page will be shown in the toolbar on the left side of the actions to turn the pages.
Note: The arrangement in columns is not restricted to the current page - but takes into consideration the whole result set.
