In the selection menu of the results view, you can choose between three different modes of viewing of your search results:

Standard view

In the standard view, results are displayed using preview images of the data sets. This view is particularly suitable for searching works of art and images.

By clicking on the button with three dots on the right-hand side, you can adjust the options in Standard view. The size of the preview images can be changed by choosing from the options Mini, Midi, Large, or Max. The format of the preview images can be adjusted by choosing Fill, Thumbnail, or Cover. The style of the display can be adjusted between the Overlay, Underlay or Sideways views, while the Standard Info can be removed by checking or unchecking the box.

Please ensure that the box Standard Info is selected, so that a short title for each record will be displayed at the bottom of the thumbnail image for each search result. Flat hierarchy is a feature that will soon be disabled; in the meantime, please keep this box selected.

At the bottom of the box, the number of displayed Records per Page can be adjusted, from a minimum of 10 per page to a maximum of 1,000.

Text view

The most important information in the record is displayed in the text view. It is particularly suitable for searching texts.

By clicking on the three dots on the right-hand side, you can adjust the display options. Please ensure that the box Standard Info is selected, so that a short title for each record will be displayed at the top of each result. Flat hierarchy is a feature that will soon be disabled; in the meantime, please keep this box selected. Select the number of Records per Page to display at the bottom.

Table view

The table view shows all information contained in a record in single rows, and is not recommended for viewing records in the Census database.
