Managing favorites

A favorite enables you to save a set of filters, to reuse them later. A favorite keeps track of applied filters, activated display options and the menu or the view in which the favorite was saved. However, the displayed timeline is not saved with the favorite, as only the timeline that was previously displayed is saved.

Example

You save your favorite in a calendar displayed over 4 months, from September to December 2020. When displaying this favorite, you select a new timeline — from January to April 2021. If you change the view or display another favorite and then display that favorite again, the last timeline will be used — from January to April 2021.

Favorites can be accessed in two ways:

  • From the drop-down list on the right side of filters. This list can be accessed from all menus in Project, but only favorites specific to a menu are displayed.
  • The Favorites menu on the left side of the screen. This menu helps quickly access some favorites. It contains favorites saved in the Schedule and Calendar menus.

When a favorite is created, the user becomes the owner of that favorite, meaning only that user can modify or delete it. When a user logs into Project, only his favorites are displayed. He cannot access favorites created by other users, unless he receives a link to a favorite.
