Managing favorites

You can save Axiom files and Web Client pages as favorites, for quick access to commonly used items. Your favorites list is available in the following locations:

Example favorites in Navigation panel

Your favorites list displays any favorites that you have saved in the Web Client.

Saving favorites

To save the current document or page as a favorite in the Web Client, click the star icon in the right side of the Task Bar. The star icon toggles from outline (not a favorite) to filled (a favorite).

Favorite icon in Web Client task bar

Once a favorite has been saved, it displays in your favorites list in the Web Client. You can use the saved favorite to quickly open the document or page.

Web favorites are saved using the name shown in the browser tab. Web reportssupport the ability to define a title that displays in the browser tab, which means the title may be different than the file name. If the title is changed after the favorite is saved, the favorite does not update to show the changed title (however, the favorite still works to open the specified document).

Currently, the Web Client does not support the ability to rename or reorder web favorites, or to organize web favorites into folders. Web favorites display as a flat list, in alphabetical order.

NOTES:  

  • When favorites are saved in the Web Client, they are saved as URLs instead of as document shortcuts. This allows you to save any page in the Web Client as a favorite, not just documents.

  • If a web favorite points to a document, and that document is later moved or renamed, the favorite will continue to open that document (but the favorite name is not updated).

Deleting favorites

To delete a favorite, hover your cursor over the favorite name (in either the Navigation panel or your home page), then click the delete icon . The favorite is deleted in the Web Client.

If the document or page for an existing favorite is deleted, the favorite is not automatically deleted. If you try to use the favorite, you are informed that the document or page cannot be found. In this case you must manually delete the favorite.
