Focus mode
Focus mode (/explorer/focus-mode) shows one record at a time with its details, so you can review a whole table record by record. You open it from the Explorer.
Open focus mode
Open a table in the Explorer
Choose a table under Available Tables.
Select Focus Mode
Select the Focus Mode button in the table toolbar. The button only appears for tables that are set up for focus mode in the ontology.
Go back when you finish
Select the arrow at the top left, or Explorer in the top bar, to return to the table.
Move between records
The page has three panels: Record List on the left, Record Detail in the middle and Context on the right.
- Select a record in the list, or use the Search records... box to find one. The list shows how many records you see, for example "3 of 120".
- Press ← and → to go to the previous or next record.
Review status
In the Review Status area you can select Mark reviewed to flag the record you are reading, and Clear flag to remove the flag. When you edit or delete a record, SynkVault flags it for you ("Auto-flagged").
Edit a record
Select Edit
Find Edit under Actions. It only appears when the ontology allows editing fields of this record type. Other fields show Read-only.
Change the values
The page shows Editing and Unsaved changes. If a value is not valid, SynkVault tells you how many validation errors there are, for example "1 validation error(s)", and shows which field is wrong.
Select Save Changes
SynkVault saves the record and shows "Record updated successfully." Select Cancel instead to leave without saving.
While you have unsaved changes, you cannot move to another record. Save or cancel first. If you try, SynkVault asks Unsaved Changes. Select Keep Editing or Discard & Continue.
Download or delete a record
- Download saves the record to a file.
- Delete asks you to confirm with Delete Record. Deleting is permanent: "This action cannot be undone." You need permission to delete records. Without it, SynkVault shows "You do not have permission to delete records."
