Where: Edit > Preferences > Grid View Options
Grid View Option |
Description |
---|---|
Font |
Set global preference for font face, size, and style used in Grid views. Click into the Font field to get the drop-down menu arrow.
Click the arrow to bring up the Fonts dialog. Set the Font, Size and Style. |
Color text by priority in grid |
Apply distinguishing colors to the event rows in Viewer panel grid displays, based on their threat-priority levels. Note that this option can be overridden by the Color text by filter in grid option if conflicts occur. When these options are not selected, the text in grid rows defaults to black. |
Color text by filter in grid |
Apply distinguishing colors to the event rows in Viewer panel grid displays, based on the filters that selected them. You set these colors through the Configure button, described below. Note that this option, when selected, overrides the Color text by priority in grid option if conflicts occur. When these options are not selected, the text in grid rows defaults to black. |
Pause the current channel on event selection |
By default, selecting an event pauses the event flow to avoid scrolling. Clear this checkbox to allow the flow to continue regardless of a selection. |
Do not prompt on verifying rule channel's timestamp change |
Toggles on or off the option to have the system generate a prompt when the timestamp changes on an active channel populated by correlation events. |
Do not prompt on channel restart |
Toggles on or off the option to have the system generate a prompt when an active channel is restarted. |
Check available database partitions on Active Channel start |
This option applies to Oracle-based ESM and does not apply to ESM with CORR-Engine. If selected, this option causes the ArcSight Manager to recheck the status of available Oracle database partitions before starting an active channel. This does have a performance effect and is used only for certain historical analysis purposes. |
Default to 'Evaluate Once' time parameter for new Active Channels | Time evaluation parameter for new channel creation; default setting is Evaluate Once. You can choose Continuous as the time evaluation value. |
Column Flip Limit |
Determines the print format for Grid Views (channels, lists, and so forth). Grid views with the same or fewer columns than the Column Flip Limit print as a table, the same as is shown in the UI on the Console grid view. Grid views with more columns than the Column Flip Limit print details per row rather in a normal table like that shown on the Console grid view. The default setting for Column Flip Limit is "10" columns. (Tables with more than 10 columns print details per row.) See also Printing from the Console. |
Filter Coloring Preferences |
Click Configure to assign identifying colors to as many as five filters in the Configure Filter Colors dialog box. |
Note: For instructions on customizing the grid's right-click option, InActiveList, see Customizing the Default Selections for Active Lists.
