Invantive VisionDirectly below the menu a ‘crumb trail’ is shown. With the crumb trail you can instantly click back to a previous screen. This functionality is similar to the multiple selection of the ‘back button’ in the browser. However with a crumb trail you can skip steps and you lose less screen space than when you display the history of the browser in a separate part of the screen.
If you open a window and execute a search query, the applied filter is also shown in the crumb trail. This makes it possible to quickly access previous screens with the preferred filter settings. The filter appears behind the screen name in parentheses.
When you open a window, execute a search query and then select a row from the search results, a reference to the selected information will be shown in the crumb trial. This makes it possible to quickly access previous screens that contain the information of your choice. The selected information in the crumb trail is preceded by the symbol ‘:’.
The picture below shows that the last three screens that were opened were ‘Projects’ screens. First you can see that the screen ‘Projects’ was opened. In the crumb trail ‘Projects’ is shown. Then in the search filter the Project Code ‘Plein’ was specified. In the crumb trail ‘Projects (Plein)’ is displayed. After this the first row in the search results was selected. In the crumb trail the screen name with a reference to the selected row: ‘Projects: Plein - Plein revisited’, is displayed.
The length of the crumb trail depends on the number of web pages visited, but is never longer than ten. The maximum number of positions of a name of a web page in the crumb trail is 36.
