Design Management
-----------------
DESIGN LIST [search filter] [filter value] [search filter] [filter value] ... [APPEARANCE] [appearance filter value]
- Search the list of designs you have access to. DESIGN LIST uses a series of filters that you can use to narrow the results.
- If using the APPEARANCE filter, it must be the last filter in the filter list.
VALID FILTERS:
- Tradeskill <tailoring/metalworking/etc>
- Status <unsubmitted/approved/unapproved>
- Expiry (<X mos. to expiry>) -- displays designs with X months or fewer before expiry.
- Preserved <true/false>
- Pattern <#>
- Granted <true/false>
- Orgowned <ANY/org>
- Creator <person>
EXAMPLE: I want to search for a design within the tailoring tradeskill that has the word "dress" in the appearance:
- I would use the search DESIGN LIST TRADESKILL TAILORING APPEARANCE DRESS.
- This uses the Tradeskill and Appearance filters. Any number of filters can be used in one search, to progressively narrow the returned results.
