Reverse Filter Window Toolbar

Near the top of Neovest's Reverse Filter window is a horizontal row of icons that is referred to in Neovest as the Reverse Filter window toolbar.

Icons in the Reverse Filter window toolbar are designed to let you access a Neovest feature or window with a single click.

The following table describes the function of each icon in Neovest's Reverse Filter window toolbar but does not explain in detail the features or windows associated with certain icons. As questions arise concerning any of the features or windows discussed in the following table, refer to the "Reverse Filter" chapter Help documentation for further assistance.

Feature: Description:
Sym:
(Symbol)
Lets you enter a symbol to be used as the filter criteria in a Reverse Filter window.
Link/Unlink Window
link
Lets you link or unlink a Reverse Filter window to or from other Neovest windows that are open on your screen. All open Neovest windows that are linked will load the same symbol; therefore, if you double-click on a symbol displayed in an open Neovest QuoteWatch window, then a Reverse Filter window will automatically load the same symbol. As you click on the "Link Window" icon, the image of the link will change to appear either intact or broken. If the link appears intact, then a Reverse Filter window is linked to other Neovest windows that are open on your screen; if it appears broken, then it is not linked.

Note
: For information regarding linking a Reverse Filter window to "All" open Neovest windows or to only certain windows that are on the same channel, refer to the proceeding "All" instructions in this table.
All
all
Lets you choose to link a Reverse Filter window to "All" open Neovest windows or to only certain windows that are on the same channel. Neovest provides 20 different channels to which you may link windows. For instance, you may choose to link two open Neovest windows to channel "1," which will cause the two windows and any other windows that are linked to "All" to automatically load the same symbol. All other open Neovest windows that are not linked to "All" or to channel "1" will not link to the same symbol.

Note
: For information regarding why you may wish to link and unlink a Reverse Filter window to and from other Neovest windows that are open on your screen, refer to the preceding "Link/Unlink Window" instructions in this table.
Select Filters
selectfilters
Lets you choose the filters that may be displayed in a Neovest Reverse Filter window. This functionality is especially helpful if you only wish to view certain filters as you enter individual symbols in a Reverse Filter window.

Note: You may remove the toolbar in any Neovest window by pressing Alt+T. Once the toolbar has been removed, simply press Alt+T again to restore the toolbar.

Further features may be accessed by clicking the gear icon, located on the far-right of the toolbar.
