Select a Project
The Navigator Projects pane includes a set of default selection sets that organize the projects that you can select. You can select criteria to limit these selection sets, use the Search field to search for specific projects, or use the New Selection Set feature to create custom selection sets.
- Use the drop-down list at the top of the Projects pane to open the saved selection sets.
- From the drop-down list, select a selection set. If you select a default selection set, Navigator displays active projects that match the criteria that you select and that your Vision Security role is allowed to access. For example, if you select Project Manager, all active projects you have access to and are the WBS1 level project manager for display in the results list. However, if you create a new selection set, Navigator displays all projects that match the specified criteria.
-
Complete one of the following actions:
- Select a project from the result set.
- Enter additional criteria in the Search field to continue refining the results list.
If there are many projects, Navigator groups the results in sets of 100. For example, if there are 582 projects in the results set, the first group of results display as Viewing 1-100 of 582. Use the arrows to click through these groups of results. For example, click the right arrow to go to Viewing 101-200 of 582. You can scroll through the results sets to locate the project that you need, or you can create a custom search using New Selection Set to refine your search. Navigator updates the list of active projects accordingly. If you use the Search field and there are more than 100 projects in the results set, Navigator only searches the current group of projects.
- If you conducted a search in Step 3, select the project from the search results.
- Selection Sets Overview
To specify criteria for a custom project search, set the Selection Set drop-down list to New Selection Set. - Show the Project List

After you do this, you can choose to show the project list at any time. - Use the Display Menu to Configure the Project List
Use the Display menu to configure your project search. You can select the type of description that displays for the project list, and the way that the list is sorted.
